This question is very interesting and I am sure that many travelers are interested in knowing the answer.. Both for Ecuadorians and foreigners, this informationóIt is very important to know it very well to avoidí bad times or problems if they travel with significant amounts of cash.
To review this informationón, we are going to divide it into two groups: those who leave Ecuador and those who enter the país cash the check, since the checks tooén summerán in the total value as if it were cash.
Withdraw money from Ecuador
The first group are national or foreign travelers who, due to their activity, must withdraw X amount of cash, If this is your case, you should know the following:
- You can get out of Ecuador without paying ISD – Exit Currency Tax up to 3 wages báunified sicos.
- Value for the 2024 It is: $1380 without taxation.
- The traveler will be ableá take out of the país in total until $9.999 dóhomes Undeclared Americans.
- if the traveler travel with equal or más de $10.000 dóhomes Americans have the obligationón to declare to the authorities at the airport andún the Org Lawánica de Preventionón, Detect usón and Eradicationón of the Crime of Money Laundering and Financing of Crimes fill out the Customs Registration Form – FROM
- This document can be requested at Customs or Immigration.óairport number.
Enter money to Ecuador
The second group is national or foreign travelers who intend to enter with cash through the country's airports.ís, so oweán know:
- The traveler will be ableá enter the país in total until $9.999 dóhomes Undeclared Americans.

If the amounts carried are declared, do not applyá collection of taxes on foreign trade (but yesí el ISD if it isá leaving the país) and the non-declarationón of the amount equal to or greater than 10 thousand dóhomes beá subject to sanctions for contraventionóno crime.
Finally, It is important to mention that the passenger can travel without cash in their pockets and justify their expenses abroad or during the visit to Ecuador with cr cardsésayings national or international.
If I want to take 5 thousand dollars from Ecuador to Spain I must cancel the ISD??
Hello there, that's how it is, you are passing the limit that is exempt from ISD.
Nicolás is not clear to me, from Ecuador you can only take 1380? without paying the ISD? and in case you carry 2.000 what is tax calculation?
In the 2000, The calculation is the extra dollars of the maximum without ISD of $1380.
Good afternoon, I would like to know if this amount is per family group or for each member of the family. 1350
Hello there, the traveler is always mentioned, but I would think there is an age limit, It would be strange for a baby 3 months trip with $1350.
hello good , if I understood , If I get less I pay ISD for the difference and if I get more than 10000 the same , I do not pay and only fill out the FRA, that's how it is ?
If you get more than 10 thousand you fill out the FRA and pay.
good night nicholas,
Where is this procedure done to pay the ISD?
after the $1250, please.
Hello Jorge, that must be done at the airport.
Good evening, ISD CAN BE PAID AT THE AIRPORT...in Quito
Thanks
as i understand, yes of course.
There is a maximum amount that I can take out of the country after the $ 10.000
Not that I know, but you will have to take into account that some countries limit the value you can enter.
Thanks for the info, Query: Is there a maximum amount to withdraw at the airport?? Because it indicates that if it is more than $10.000 should be declared, correct, but there is a maximum amount to be able to take on the plane? I mean, I can withdraw for example $30mi? or until how much?
To my knowledge there is no maximum, but take into account that there are countries that limit the amount of money that can enter their territories. Additional, You must justify the legitimate origin of that money.
OK thank you
A pleasure.
Thanks. They are gold bars that have different values, as very small ingots, from what value should be declared? From 10000 like cash? or how much?
Honestly, I don't have that information, first time they ask me, but i assume it must be cash equivalent, but i can't guarantee it.
Good evening. What happens if you want to bring gold, counts as cash?
I assume it depends on how much you bring, yes it is a jewel, no, but if you bring a safe ingot you must declare it.
Good afternoon, dear Mr. Nicolás.!
First of all thank you for your information..
You have knowledge about the tax payment that generates the amount of USD 8.649,00, value resulting from the subtraction of the authorized amount and the amount exempt from tax, please ?
of that value, you have to pay the respective ISD, which is currently 3%.
Hello there, and if it is more than the minimum quantity, but less than 9999, How can I calculate the ISD tax that must be paid?
you must subtract $1350 of the amount you carry and the value it gives you, you take out the ISD.
But if I have to pay ISD for the difference of 9999.99 and 1350.00 on 2023, that is not declaring that amount?
How then do they say that I can get almost 10 000 without declaring, if i have to pay isd, that is to declare or not?
If you travel with equal or more than $10.000 Dollars, you must fill out the Customs Registration Form – FRA. if you carry less, you pay the ISD, but you do not declare in the form.
Hello there
It is not clear about the maximum value to be taken out of the country
It says that you can take out up to USS/ 1275 without paying ISD
But then it says that you can withdraw up to USD/ 9.999 without declaring
Please clarify
Greetings
JIMMY
You can take out 9999, but you will pay taxes discounting 1275 that are free from the ISD.
Thanks for the information, it's important.. I have a question, since it is not clear, What is the maximum value that can be carried in cash?, without paying taxes: $1.275 Or until $9.999
Thanks
Hi Vincent, Yes, the information is somewhat complex to understand, but i will try to explain it better: you can take up 9999 dollars not declared on the customs form FRA. From those 9999 you will have to pay ISD, but subtracting the 1275 dollars that are free without taxes.
Hi Nicolas. It is correct and it is an international standard used by most countries. But it is good to clarify that the amounts in checks, even if they are not in your name, still count as cash., so they must be added to the cash and not exceed the limit. I'm telling you because I lived it once in Miami. Cheers
excellent clarification, I'm going to add it.
