| Summary: | This paper aims to analyze border refusals regarding Latin American exports due to non-compliance of technical requirements. For this, three case studies which aim to cover the regional diversity involved are presented: Chile, Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic. Food exports sent to the United States and the European Union from January 2002 to December 2013 were analyzed, focusing on rejections and the reasons why. In this regard, it is noted that the country with the most cases of rejection of exports is the Dominican Republic, the main reason being the presence of pesticides, failures in product manufacturing or because it was lthy or decomposed. For Costa Rica, the main reasons for rejection are the presence of pesticides, failures in manufacturing and the labeling not meeting the requirements of the target markets. Whereas in Chile, the main reasons are that the products were lthy or decomposed as well as there being failures in manufacturing. Considering the results obtained, it can be concluded that Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic have improvements to make mostly in their productive stages, while Chile must do so in its post productive stage. This research is a contribution to the study of the impact of the technical requirements in international trade, as well as to the emerging literature on export refusals. |
