Guidance by trigger

The triggering event determines the order of the analysis.

A questionnaire, an audit, market entry or the maintenance of several engagements each call for distinct decisions and levels of evidence.

The role determines the mandate

The supplier examines its own capability. The European client defines the supplier decision it needs to reach.

Country file

Chile

The Union's purchases here are mainly raw materials and energy. The population is largely connected and local hosting is dense here. Regional markers: Latin America and the Caribbean.

Relationship with the European Union

Interim trade agreement with the European Union — in force since 2025

A trade agreement settles customs duties and the origin of goods. It does not settle security: the audit rights and evidence expected by the European client remain the same.

Points to check within your organisation

To be scoped

What the service actually covers

An extraction-based economy tells you little about the provider you are assessing. Have them specify what is supplied, by which entity, and with what technical resources of their own.

To be governed

The small amount of data that flows, and its framework

Without an adequacy decision, the volume transferred matters less than its nature: contracts, contact details and access logs are enough to trigger the obligation. Ask which transfer tool is used and what its scope covers.

To be located

Where your data actually resides

Local hosting is common here, which does not tell you where your data actually lands: ask for the country of each environment, including backups, and who holds the keys.

What this means for your situation

Inedible crude materials: 32.8% of what the Union buys here. No sector genuinely dominates these purchases. It is therefore the contract, not the country, that must state what is actually supplied.

Describe your European relationship and the request received.

The Chile file establishes a country and its relationship with the Union. What remains is to establish exactly what the service covers, and what resources of its own are engaged there.
