Does anyone know whether you are taxed or what is the procedure to move belongings into the country?
I was planning to hire a moving company to ship all my things to E.S but not sure what the salvadoran custom requires?

Why not just check with the Salvadorño Aduna on which items are allowed in tax free and which may be liable to tax?

I paid no tax on the things I brought but I only had what I could load in my bussette when I came, had to unload and itemize everything at the border, took 5 hrs.

Your car can only be 7 yrs old to import though.

I was told by friends who own a beach house a few months ago and I read an article just a few days ago on the gang members they captured...
Not sure if it's still unsafe or not...

There are articles everyday in the local El Salvadorian press about Gang Members being captured, like Chicago and other large cities in US, Gang Members live in marginal areas, Ex Pats and Tourists who use common sense stick to areas known to be safe, long term Ex Pats and Natives will advise you, of course if you are frightened, don't bother to relocate here, you will find crime everywhere, visit first at least a month, I lived in NYC USA 13 years, mugged 5 times, El Salvador and Guatemala 28 years, mugged 0 times. Some petty theft when I did not use common sense. http://www.wtf-elsalvador.com/ informative website for visitors.
