Spanish term or phrase: ampliaciones de importación /exportación
I am translating an import/export license and I can't decide whether to use 'import/export extension' or import/export expansion' for the translation of 'ampliaciones de importación /exportación'

In this context which would be the most appropriate option?

In another part of the document 'Motivo por el cual solicita la ampliación' - I hope this bit of extra context helps.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

import/export extensions


Explanation:
This would seem the most logical option, but surely there must be dates, etc. in the body of the text?

It's unlikely that an application for the "expansion" of a territory, etc. would be made without this involving a very complicated process that would include other documentation, communication with other agents, etc.

ampliación de importación /exportación
import / export add-on/s


Explanation:
Literally, widening the scope of such imports and exports.

No more context really needed, except which Spanish-speaking country, if it's a licenc/se- shipping manifest implied, but add-on, as yet another 'best' option, would also work for any data program - albeit post-dating 'my time' in export in London - and used for such purpose.

Example sentence(s):
  • WPCargo Import/Export Add-on will help you add your shipments in bulk using a csv template
  • You can add containers to an *existing manifest* or add to a new manifest after packing it.
