Hey renimus,

I reached out to SalCar, the intrepid rider of Nica. He used this service to store a motorcycle. Medisan is a bonded warehouse.

If you are closer to the Honduras or Costa Rica frontier, there is probably a bonded warehouse near by where you can "suspend" the temporary importation while it is being stored. You don't want to cancel the permit, you want to suspend it. A Google search for bonded ware house + 'your country' will return more results.



You are very close to the expiration date. Going beyond that date leads to fines in some countries. At some point a country will insist that you import the equipment, duties, taxes, the whole disaster. Seek out an aduana offices at your first opportunity and get the importation extended.


Salcar put me in touch with Gabriel, his motorcycle tour business manager. Apparently Gabriel knows of another customs agent. I wrote to ask for contacts and if he knows of an aduana office in Managua. Chances are there is an aduana office near the airport, as well as more than one bonded warehouse.


If you are in need of support, Salcar has offered to put you up at his place. I will send details via private message.


Hope your neck is getting better and you get the importation sorted out in time...or without too much delay.
