HI Dojidog,

There is a somewhat dated post on the gun subject here:

I suggest you bring everything you might think you'll ever need in a container and start your residency application. You will pay a bond to get your belongings from the container which will be returned to you once your residency is approved. Good quality tools can be difficult to find here and expensive. Specialty tools will have to be imported. There is not a market large enough in Uruguay to support specialized items. If you speak Spanish you can start the residency application yourself or there are many consultants here only too happy to help you.

You can get a decent transformer and run the 127v stuff, but anything timing based will not work correctly as the frequency is different here.

Regarding using your IT skills, you can do remote stuff through web sites that hook you up directly with clients internationally a la airbnb (sorry, can't remember such a site off-hand but a search should find some hits). There is a well-developed IT industry in Montevideo but be aware the pay will be peanuts. You will find good employment info at

I hope this has been useful. If you have further questions I'm always happy to help. If you want to talk real estate or anything else privately, send me a PM.

Thank you

An out-of-date thread and a recommendation from a real-estate vendor to聽 "bring everything" (including all firearms) in a container as you start the Spanish-language visa paperwork...may make sense to some.

To me it sounds like a recipe for disaster.

You require specific, quality legal advice on how to prepare for the eventual appearance on the scene of Uruguay customs agents.

If you can afford to amass collections of guns and sophisticated woodworking tools, you should do the right thing and protect your property by advance, considered planning.

Excellent suggestion by ccmedia. It seems you have not done your homework as thorough as needed.
Contact an attorney and a relocation professional and save many headaches or worse have to reverse your move. This is a big step and not the time to save a few bucks.

AGAIN AN EXCELLENT RECOMMENDATION BY CCMEDIA!
