Generating a New DODA/PITA
The purpose of DODA/PITA is to automate and expedite the customs inspection and clearance process. It must be prepared to include information about previously validated and paid pedimentos.
Companies will have the customs broker/legal representative prepare a DODA/PITA, which will be printed and handed to the corresponding freight forwarder (along with the merchandise) before Mexico Customs for inspection. As soon as Mexico Customs receives it, they will scan the QR code.
All pedimentos covered by such DODA/PITA will automatically be displayed. Immediately afterward, the MX Customs system will determine whether an inspection will be performed or not.
