Spanish term

previos en origen

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general) freight/customs
Servicio de previos en origen.

"Previos en origen" appears to be a standard term in Spanish and is widely found on the Internet. It refers to the process of inspecting freight at the place of origin, with a view to shipment.

I could translate it as "freight inspection service at the place of origin", or something like that, but I can't find a more concise, set expression, and I'm wondering if there is one.

Target: U.S. English

pre-customs clearance inspections

Hi Joshua
I believe the term is more commonly known as previo en origen (no S) and seems to be specific to Mexico or for merchandise entering Mexico, please see: El Previo en Origen es la revisión de la mercancía y documentos de embarque en el país de origen. Esto permite no abrir el contenedor en puerto mexicano.


HONG KONG--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AsiaInspection (AI), a global quality control and supplier compliance service provider, today announced the completion of its acquisition of GOAL, the Mexican leader for pre-customs clearance inspections (PEO, or Previo en Origen) services.

PEO services allow any company importing merchandise to Mexico to make customs clearance faster and smoother by performing an inspection at origin.
