Customs Clearance Area

About the ADA

The customs gateway to ZPE Piauí

The ADA is the bonded area within ZPE Piauí's perimeter dedicated to receiving, storing and clearing cargo. It is through the ADA that all goods, whether imported or destined for export, enter and leave the Zone, with customs control, physical security and monitoring integrated into ZPE's own structure.
