Officials do not board yachts for clearance. Formalities are carried out in the marina complex and include Aduana (Customs) and Prefectura (Coast Guard).
Immigration at the port operates only from 09.00 to 15.00. If required after these hours, you need proceed to Laguna del Sauce Airport (20 kms/12.4miles away) on the outskirts of the city to carry out this clearance.
First you will need to visit the Prefecture, followed by a bus to the airport for Immigration, then Customs and finally Prefecture again back at the marina.
The marina complex has all the Uruguayan Authorities offices.
See the Customs and Coast Guard building on the right of the picture with the Punta del Este lighthouse on the left.
You will be required to show that you have paid the marina before you can be cleared out by the Prefecture.
