They ask companies for the 2023 projection and bet on bringing relief with more measures

But as far as he could find out Ambitthere will be more measures: they are betting on bringing relief with the expansion of the Chinese swap, import laundering, further shortening the terms for some sectors and accelerating exports to guarantee more dollars.

Projections 2023

As of this week, the form is now available for companies to upload foreign trade projections 2023, in an excel that they have to submit to the AFIP. Although it is something that has been requested every year since this government took office, it brings several novelties that surprised companies.

On the one hand, that most will have to carry it. Before, it was done by sectors with great import needs, such as the automotive or electronics sectors. Or companies with a need for goods under non-automatic licenses, which had special treatment. However, dFrom the business chambers they assured that now most of the companies are going to have to carry it. Not only because automatic licences, which were 25% of the trade and went to almost 50%, but because the SIRA does not distinguish the treatment between automatic and non-automatic licenses. Therefore, companies that import goods under a non-automatic license must also fill out the form.

The other novelty, which “makes companies uncomfortable”, as revealed in a camera, is that asks for much more data, which they fear “will be used against them.” However, others believe that more information can mean greater understanding with Commerce, and thus have greater predictability. “Anyway, much of the information they ask for, the AFIP already has. As a Secretary of Commerce once said, if companies can’t upload an excel, they can’t run a business,” said a prominent customs broker.

The form requests general company data, such as the CUIT and activity, CEO data, registered employees, number of plants, projected investments, sales in the domestic market and who are its suppliers. In addition, a contact for the customs broker. Finally, it is to load the detail of imports by product, and also exports, to know the company’s trade balance.

The foreign trade areas of the business chambers recommend loading the famous “excel” and uploading it. “Having that guideline is what will later give them room, if their imports are not approved, to be able to sit down and kick. If not, it is possible that later they will not even be able to sit down and discuss it”, explained a source from the private sector.

next steps

Sources from the economic team said that the analysis of imports is carried out “day by day”, with weekly meetings of the Monitoring and Evaluation Committee, where the Central Bank, the Ministry of Commerce, Customs, AFIP, and now sit. a chair from the private sector was incorporated, through the executive director of the UIA, Diego Coatz. They watch the import dashboard come in real time, day by day.

Currently, requests to take measures are analyzed in a “sectoral” manner. It is on the agenda to shorten payment terms for some sectors and to give some type of quota of dollars for the smallest SMEs that do not obtain any type of financing. In addition, they seek to guarantee greater pre-financing of exports, to guarantee companies that they have a better balance, and thus approve imports.

The economic team is betting on the arrival of the fine harvest in December, after what will be a month, as it is November, “historically in deficit” in sales from the Central Bank, and after a dollar of soybeans that brought forward the settlement. In the junction until the thick harvest arrives, they are betting that two measures will bring relief. On the one hand, that the extension of the available amount of the Chinese swap up to US$5,000 million and the changes in its use can guarantee foreign trade with yuan, through the ICBC bank. On the other hand, that SMEs use the import laundering that became law with the 2023 budget.
