Subject: Import/ Export to Brazil

Question
I am interested in Exporting Electronics and name brand merchandise to Brazil & Exporting to America Materiels like Granite, I heard if you Export Electronics to Brazil they will Tax you to death so I heard you can Export to Padaguia or Argentina and then Drive it across the Border w/o paying taxes, is this true? what is the best way?

Answer
Hello:

Driving accross the border from Paraguay to Brazil is only feasible at the consumer level, because the allowance is low ($500 per person, I believe).

Electronics is a VERY competitive sector, and most brands have their own distribution channels, so I would stay away from it.

I suggest you look into industrial items, parts and components, where you deal with larger corporate buyers.  This is much more reliable as a business.

Hope this helps,

Rene
