Vendor due diligence
Vendor due diligence checklist for a Chilean supplier.
Generic vendor due diligence checklists don't cover Chile's identity system, registries or tax documents. This one does.
Six checks
What to verify before you onboard.
- 01
Legal identity
Confirm the exact legal name and RUT of the entity that will sign — not a trading name or brand.
- 02
Registry status
Check whether the company is active, its registration route (electronic RES or traditional Commercial Registry) and who is authorized to represent it.
- 03
Litigation & insolvency
Screen the company and its principals for active court cases and Boletín Concursal (insolvency) filings.
- 04
Financial capacity
Request a current Carpeta Tributaria para Solicitar Créditos and review declared activity, tax consistency and financial trend.
- 05
References
Ask for at least two existing customer references, ideally one in your industry or geography.
- 06
Operational fit
Confirm capacity, certifications and delivery track record match the scope of what you are buying.
Chile-specific gaps a generic checklist misses.
Most vendor due diligence templates assume a US or EU registry system. Chile runs two parallel company registration routes, a tax ID (RUT) that anchors every record, and a free tax folder (Carpeta Tributaria) most global checklists never mention.
The result: teams either skip financial screening entirely, or ask for the wrong document.
