Spanish term or phrase: Repartimiento de aduanas
Hi,
I'm working on a Notarial Certificate for an authorization to travel abroad, and there is a sentence that reads:

"Para ser presentada ante las autoridades de migración, repartimiento de aduanas, autoridades administrativas y judiciales del país (...) y demás Instituciones oficiales que la requieran".

Could someone give me a hand with "repartimiento de aduanas" in this context?

Thanks in advance,
Nati

Customs division


Explanation:
I would have thought it means the customs division of the revenue services of the respective country.

Hope this helps :)

neutral  AllegroTrans: it's not a "division" in every country
4 hrs
  -> Indeed it's not. However this reasoning makes about as much sense as denying the word "repartimiento" appears in the source text! Just what is your point, Allegro?
