What regulatory approvals are needed to import color contact lenses into Colombia?
+
Contact lenses in Colombia are regulated by INVIMA (Instituto Nacional de Vigilancia de Medicamentos y Alimentos) under Decreto 4725 de 2005 as Class IIa medical devices. Importers must hold a Sanitary Registration (Registro Sanitario) issued by INVIMA. kyralens supports B2B buyers by providing complete technical dossiers, Free Sale Certificates (CVL/CFS) apostilled in the country of origin, ISO 13485 certificates, manufacturing process flowcharts, and clinical safety reports.
Can we order contact lenses with customized Spanish retail packaging?
+
Yes, full private-label packaging is our primary OEM service. We design and print retail cartons, blister foils, and instruction leaflets tailored to INVIMA labeling requirements, including Spanish translation of safety warnings, DIAN importer registration details, lot numbers, manufacturing dates, and local barcode standards (EAN-13).
What are the typical Minimum Order Quantities (MOQ) for custom private label orders?
+
For existing stock color series (such as Magister or Freshgo), wholesale MOQs start as low as 50 to 100 pairs per order. For customized private label packaging boxes with custom logo offset printing, the standard starting MOQ is 500 to 1,000 units per artwork SKU, allowing optical retailers to test market response prior to full-scale rollout.
What is the standard shipping lead time to Bogotá or Medellín?
+
For stock orders dispatched via express air freight (DHL, FedEx, UPS), delivery to major Colombian cities (Bogotá El Dorado International Airport, Medellín, Cali) typically takes 5 to 8 business days. Custom OEM production runs with personalized packaging require 15 to 20 days for manufacturing plus 5 to 7 days for air freight transportation.
Which lens materials perform best for dark brown Latin American irises?
+
For natural transformation on dark brown eyes, we recommend 3D sandwich-pigmented polymacon lenses with high-opacity micro-dot printing. Shades such as Ocre, Hazel, Hidrocor Graphite, and Topazio offer realistic tone changes without appearing artificial under bright natural sunlight.
What is the purpose of supplying packaging machinery like the DPP80 Mini Blister Machine?
+
For growing optical distributors in Colombia looking to establish localized manufacturing hubs, importing pre-sterilized contact lens blisters and sealing them locally with custom saline formulations using the DPP80 packaging machine reduces import tariffs, enhances flexibility for small batch localized packaging, and accelerates time-to-market.
What payment terms are offered for Colombian B2B buyers?
+
We accept Wire Transfer (T/T), Commercial Letters of Credit (L/C) for bulk sea container shipments, and secure credit card / PayPal options for initial sample evaluations. Flexible credit terms are available for established recurring retail partners in Latin America.
