We have broad experience with requests to change the Common External Tariff (CET) permanently or temporarily, particularly concerning import tax reductions based on supply shortage or lack of a similar national product. We also guide requests to include or exclude products in Brazil’s List of Exceptions to the CET and List of Temporary Increases in the CET, tackling short-term imbalances arising from international economic crises.
