Complete guide to duty rates, age limits, clearance ports & top China-origin models for the Guatemala market.
10 years maximum
Age-based ISC tax
Puerto Quetzal
Guatemala taxes by age through an ISC mechanism, which makes the year of the car a bigger lever than the badge.
An age-based ISC sits on top of import duty, so older units clear for more. That means the newest model-year your budget reaches usually beats a cheaper older car on total cost.
Puerto Quetzal and Santo Tomas are the gateways, with nationwide road distribution. Left-hand drive is standard and documents must match the unit.
Compact SUVs and practical saloons suit Guatemalan roads. Send the model-year you are weighing and we will quote so years can be compared on equal terms.
