Uruguay has been making tremendous strides in international cannabis distribution. The country’s buds have already made it all the way to Germany.
But a recently approved decree has the potential to propel Uruguay to the forefront of cannabis logistical endeavors.
Other countries can now ship cannabis products to Uruguay. While in the country, the products can get repackaged while in transit before being reexported to other countries – without any payment of customs duties, explained Bruno Guella, managing director of MVD Free Airport.
MVD Free Airport is a company operating the cargo terminal inside the airport for Uruguay’s capital city, Montevideo. The airport area it operates in is a free-trade zone.
