Why search Uruguay with the rest of the region?

Uruguay is a founding member of Mercosur, with Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay, and many of the products it trades move through the same regional supply chains as its neighbors. With Uruguay and Argentina in the same platform, you can compare how one product category moves through both markets, which origins supply each, and how declared values differ.

How does Uruguay data reach you?

In Atlas, Explorer searches every Uruguay declaration (DUA), Vault keeps the products and partner countries you follow, and Vault emails you when the monthly release adds matching records.

For teams that load data into their own systems, Files delivers the historical archive and monthly increments by FTP or API in CSV, Excel, JSON, or Parquet.
