San Marino is a sovereign microstate fully enclosed by Italy, operating under a customs cooperation framework with the European Union via Italy, while not being an EU Member State. Despite its size, San Marino hosts advanced manufacturing, precision engineering, medical technology, electronics, and research-driven enterprises that depend on the import of regulated and high-value equipment.
All commercial imports and exports for San Marino are physically routed through Italy, typically entering via Bologna Airport, Milan Malpensa Airport, Rimini logistics corridors, or Italian seaports. Customs clearance is executed under EU Union Customs Code procedures, with additional San Marino–specific fiscal and registration requirements.
Uproot Technologies enables compliant equipment movement into and out of San Marino by assuming full IOR/EOR responsibility, managing Italian EU customs clearance, and coordinating final delivery into San Marino with Remote-Hands support where physical coordination is required.
