Chip Moreno
Founder · Cuenca resident
“I moved to Ecuador without knowing which documents mattered most. I paid for translations I didn't need and waited weeks for apostilles in the wrong order. Now I map out the exact sequence for every client—before they spend money on paperwork that might not even belong to their route.”
Chip built EcuaPass after navigating the move himself. The service combines careful administrative coordination with local context from Cuenca—without pretending a government decision can be guaranteed.
