The Brazilian market is currently undergoing significant changes in its tax system, with focus on simplification and international alignment. One of the major changes involves a reform of the taxes imposed on the consumption of goods and services. The objective is to restructure the tax system, ease compliance obligations, and eliminate cascading effects resulting from the imposition of these taxes. A notable aspect of this reform is the adoption of a dual VAT system. The dual VAT system is designed to replace existing taxes on consumption. These changes indicate a strategic shift towards a more efficient taxation approach. In addition to con­sump­tion-re­lated taxes, recent updates include a new transfer pricing legislation aligned with the guidelines set by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). This demonstrates Brazil's commitment to international standards and practices, providing a more globally consistent framework for multinational groups operating in the country. Overall, the anticipation of a decrease in bureaucratic obstacles for tax compliance and a more predictable tax treatment for transactions involving related parties is a positive signal for investors. This can potentially create a more favorable business environment, encouraging both local and foreign investors to consider initiating or expanding their operations in Brazil. For a deeper dive into these transformative changes in the Brazilian tax landscape, you are invited to participate in this webinar. The session will be a great source of insights for investors seeking to navigate and capitalize on the emerging opportunities in the Brazilian market. The webinar will be presented by Juliana Porchat de Assis, partner in Tax Planning, Transactional, and International Operations practices at FAS Advogados in cooperation with CMS.
