Frequently asked questions

Do I need a Brazilian company to sell in Brazil?

No. Imports into Brazil require a registered local importer, and we work with licensed import partners so you do not need your own entity. You sell to us and we coordinate the rest.

How do Brazilian import taxes affect my price?

Import duties and taxes in Brazil stack on top of each other and can change the shelf price significantly. We quote on landed cost from the start and only propose references that stay competitive.

Does my product need ANVISA approval?

Cosmetics, personal care and supplements are regulated by ANVISA, and pet food by MAPA. We check each reference and manage the filings with licensed local partners.

How long does a launch take?

We make it as short as possible. Our wide network of contacts, from retail buyers to customs agents, regulatory consultants and logistics providers, lets us run registration, retailer onboarding and shipping in parallel rather than one after another. Working with the best professionals at every step of the process gets your products on shelf sooner.
