The form, which collects personal, flight and customs declaration information, can be submitted up to three days before travel. Ecuador’s Customs Authority recommends completing the form as early as possible.
Upon submission, travelers receive a QR code that must be presented to immigration and customs officials at entry and exit points. Non-compliance may result in fines or denied entry/exit.
Previously, the FRA was only required for travelers carrying taxable goods or currency equivalent to USD 10,000 or more. The requirement now applies to all travelers as part of strengthened border controls.
