Tally is a platform — not a customs broker.
We coordinate the entire process and connect you with the right specialists. Padrón registration, broker matching, NOM labeling, and freight coordination — managed end-to-end.
We connect
We match you with vetted, licensed customs brokers (agentes aduanales) and freight forwarders from our partner network — based on product category, port of entry, and volume.
We coordinate
End-to-end management: Padrón registration, document review, NOM labeling, freight to FBA. Communication between you and your customs broker stays in one place.
Boundary: Tally does not directly perform import operations, customs clearance, or freight logistics. These services are provided by licensed third-party customs brokers and logistics companies in our partner network. Tally acts as coordinator and advisor, facilitating the connection between you and qualified service providers. You contract directly with each provider.
Everything you need to navigate Mexican customs.
Eight deliverables, all managed through the Tally platform.
Tariff classification advisory
Guidance on your 10-digit tariff code (fracción arancelaria) to determine duty rates and regulatory requirements. Final classification is performed by the licensed customs broker.
Landed cost estimation
A detailed estimate of all expected costs before you ship: duties, taxes, broker fees, transport, and handling. Full visibility before you commit.
Padrón de Importadores
Registration in SAT’s Padrón de Importadores — the mandatory registry that authorizes your entity to import. Padrón Sectorial also coordinated for protected industries (textiles, footwear, chemicals).

Spanish-language oversticker labels: NOM-050 (commercial info), NOM-141 (cosmetics), NOM-051 (food and beverage warnings). Coordinated with specialized labeling partners.
Customs broker matching
Connection to licensed customs brokers (agentes aduanales) from our vetted partner network. Matched by product category, port of entry, and volume. You contract directly with the broker.
Document review & guidance
We review commercial invoices, packing lists, certificates of origin, and technical data sheets before submission to help avoid delays at customs.
Encargo Conferido
Preparation of the Encargo Conferido — the formal authorization for a customs broker to act on your entity’s behalf for import operations.
FBA logistics
Coordination with logistics providers for land transportation from customs facilities to Amazon FBA fulfillment centers in Mexico City, Guadalajara, Monterrey, or Toluca.
