How to Import to Brazil:

 
When a Brazilian person imports something - i.e. buys anything from abroad regardless of place of origin (in almost all cases) - then the buyer / recipient will have to pay taxes to be able to receive the goods.
This is worth knowing if you are drop-shipping to Brazil or exporting to Brazil, as your Brazilian buyer may not be aware of the big tax bill coming their way and will need to be warned about this.
As the exporter sending goods to Brazil you also need to obtain a tax number for the recipient of the goods. If you send the goods without that, you are risking holding the goods up in customs or even having them impounded.
Brazil Import Tax Basics:
- If you want to send shipments to Brazil by door-to-door courier, Brazilian law only allows goods to enter if the goods have no commercial value, or are destined for private use only, and have a value of under USD 3,000.
- Within those limits a courier such as FedEx will be able to issue clearance.
- However, despite being within the allowed limits mentioned, the goods WILL be subject to duties and taxes if the value is over USD 50.00
- Duties and taxes could add another 100% (!) to the goods price, e.g. 60% import duty + 18% sales tax + around USD 10.00 for customs administrative charges.
- Books and documents are duty exempt, except for advertisement and printing materials.
- Goods entering Brazil destined for resale need to be cleared through customs with a broker and will attract duties according to standard Harmonised Tariff categories.
Brazilian Tax Number / Tax ID
- The tax ID required for shipments to Brazilian private individuals is called CPF - Cadastro Pessoa Fisica - and in fact will be well known to the person because it is like a Social Security Number. Format of the number would be like: 000.000.028-00
- For companies the tax needs to be charged differently and their company tax number must be delcared: CPNJ - Cadastro Nacional de Pessoa Juridica. Format of the number would be something like: 00.000.486/0001-00
