The Perico Free Zone continues to provide its highly efficient and uninterrupted truck weighing service, a fundamental pillar for the security and transparency of operations within the premises.
The service is carried out using a certified scale that operates with total reliability. From the early hours of the morning, there is a constant flow of vehicles waiting to be weighed, confirming the Free Zone’s central role in the regional supply chain.

The weighing operation handles a wide variety of cargo, including sensitive and strategic materials, underscoring the Free Zone’s capacity to adapt to the multiple needs of its direct users. Among the handled cargo are:
- Minerals: Lead and lead concentrate (specifically from Mina Aguilar).
- Chemicals and Bulk: Salt, lime (cal), and ammonium nitrate.
- Others: Flour (harina) and explosives.
Issuance of Fiscal Tare: A Key Service for National Logistics
A differentiating aspect of the service is the issuance of the fiscal tare (tara fiscal). This process consists of:
- Empty Truck Weighing: A ticket stub (tara fiscal) is obtained for the truck without cargo.
- Logistical Facilitation: The ticket allows the carrier to proceed to other fiscal scales in the country.
- Net Weight Calculation: The document is subsequently used to obtain the net weight of the merchandise once the truck has been loaded.
This service is crucial for the traceability and correct fiscal control of goods, ensuring compliance with regulations at every stage of the logistics process.
Customs Presence: Guarantee of Legality
It is important to note that operational efficiency is complemented by strict legal compliance. Every operation in the Free Zone, including weighing and entry/exit movements, is carried out with the mandatory presence of Customs (Aduana) and its verifying guards. This supervision ensures that all activities are conducted under the highest standards of fiscal control.
The commitment of the Perico Free Zone is to continue providing a robust and standardized weighing service, fully supporting the operations of its users and contributing to the development of foreign trade in the region.
