The\u00a0regulation for the Free Trade Zone Program offers companies a legal framework that builds security and trust with the conditions that the Colombian National Government requires to grant benefits when operating from a Free Trade Zone.<\/p>\n

\u00bfWhat is the Free Trade Zone regulation?<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s the legal framework established by a law of the Colombian Congress (Law 1004 of 2005) which contains the purposes of Free Trade Zones, structured in 5 core principles:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. To be an instrument for the creation of new jobs and for the attraction of new capital investments.<\/li>\n
  2. To be a development hub that promotes competitiveness in the regions where they are established.<\/li>\n
  3. To develop industrial processes that are highly productive and competitive, and that follow the concepts of security, transparency, technology, clean production and good business practices.<\/li>\n
  4. To promote the creation of economies of scale.<\/li>\n
  5. To simplify the procedures to commercialize goods and services in order to ease their sales processes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    \n

    \u00bfWhy is it important and what do companies use it for?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

    It is the way that the Government defines the conditions and benefits that are granted to a company that intends to establish itself in a Free Trade Zone.<\/p>\n
