Brazil has one of the most diverse and rapidly changing regulatory environments in the world. New tax laws are continuously being introduced and current laws are often amended without notice. This state-by-state guide to Brazil has been created to ensure that you never miss an update again.
In 2008, Brazil adopted a clearance electronic invoicing model in which the country’s tax authority must receive and clear an invoice before a supplier can issue it to a payer. More than a decade later, the Brazilian tax administration’s digitization has evolved so much that other tax administrations call Brazil the Google of fiscal goods. Current regulations include electronic invoices for: supplies of goods (NF-e), services (NFS-e), transport services (CT-e), freight (MDF-e), SPED, REINF and, more recently, for the supply of electricity (NF3e). This document provides an overview of the mandates and regulations in Brazil.
