SUNAT International Shipping Tax Exemption Application Form

Streamline Your SUNAT International Shipping Tax Exemption Application

If you're a shipping company or maritime operator conducting international trade through Peru, navigating SUNAT (Superintendencia Nacional de Aduanas y de Administración Tributaria) tax exemption requirements can be complex. This SUNAT International Shipping Tax Exemption Application Form template is designed specifically for maritime businesses seeking tax relief under Peruvian maritime regulations, including flag verification, cargo documentation, and tonnage tax elections.

Why Paperform for Peruvian Maritime Tax Compliance?

Paperform makes it simple to collect, organize, and process the detailed documentation required by SUNAT for international shipping tax exemptions. Rather than managing paper forms, email chains, and scattered PDFs, you can create a single, professional digital form that:

• Collects structured vessel and cargo information with conditional logic that shows only relevant fields based on your vessel type and operations
• Uploads and organizes documentation like flag certificates, cargo manifests, tonnage certificates, and RUC registration documents in one secure location
• Routes applications automatically using Stepper to notify your tax advisors, legal team, or SUNAT liaisons the moment a submission arrives
• Maintains compliance records with timestamped submissions, audit trails, and SOC 2 Type II security standards

This template is ideal for shipping companies, freight forwarders, maritime agencies, customs brokers, and logistics firms operating in Peru who need to demonstrate compliance with SUNAT regulations while claiming legitimate tax exemptions on international shipping operations.

Built for Peruvian Maritime Operations

The form includes Peru-specific fields for RUC registration numbers, vessel flag verification, IMO numbers, cargo manifests, port of call documentation, and tonnage tax election options that align with current SUNAT requirements. Conditional logic ensures that only relevant documentation is requested based on your vessel type, cargo classification, and exemption category.

Whether you're applying for exemptions on cargo transport, tonnage tax elections, or demonstrating foreign flag compliance, this template provides a clear, organized pathway for both your team and SUNAT reviewers.

Automate Your Maritime Compliance Workflow

Connect this form to your existing compliance stack using Paperform's native integrations or Stepper to automatically:

• Send submission notifications to your accounting or legal team
• Log applications in your CRM, Airtable, or Google Sheets
• Generate confirmation receipts with application reference numbers
• Trigger follow-up reminders for pending documentation

With Paperform's calculation engine and conditional logic, you can also build in validation rules to ensure RUC formats are correct, tonnage calculations are accurate, and all required documentation is provided before submission—reducing back-and-forth with SUNAT and speeding up approval timelines.
