Brazil’s National Trade Facilitation Committee held its 14th meeting on June 29 to review the modernization of the country’s foreign trade. Key topics included the rollout of the New Import Process and the development of the Single Foreign Trade Portal.
More than 80% of import operations registered in Brazil now use the Single Import Declaration. The new process is being introduced gradually and is intended to replace the Import Declaration, enable information to be submitted once and support data sharing among public agencies.
Participants also reviewed the Portal’s Risk Management module. It helps agencies responsible for import approvals conduct administrative analysis using risk criteria and allocate public resources more efficiently.
