After the vice-president, Geraldo Alckmin, defended the debate on the taxation of international purchases below US$50, federal deputy Paulo Guedes (PT-MG) confirmed that the Federal Revenue must complete the balance of the Remessa Conform program next Tuesday Monday (05/12).
The deputy, who is also the rapporteur of a bill to tax all purchases, said that this study will help the government decide the rate that will be charged of purchases under US$50.
He further commented to Valor:
I met with the IRS and they informed me that next Tuesday the balance sheet will be closed and they will pass it on to me. They are taking stock of the profile of imports, possible fraud, and the values involved. They will give me this data so that I can complete my report.
For now, deputy Guedes does not know how the government will act once it has all the data from the Federal Revenue Service, but even so, he must complete his report and present a definitive bill to the Chamber of Deputies next Tuesday.
My opinion is not finalized yet. For now I’m listening to all sides to make my decision.
It is worth remembering that the federal government even estimated a rate of 28% for international purchases below US$50, something that goes beyond the 20% revealed by representatives of the Ministry of Finance.
In this scenario, the consumer would have to pay federal tax of 28% and ICMS of 17% for purchases below US$50 and 60% + 17% for goods above this price range.
This rate might yield up to R$2.8 billion in taxes to the government in 2024 and industry and retail sectors advocate that 100% of purchases be taxed.
Therefore, even if the government decides not to charge taxes on these purchases, the National Congress will pass a law to make this happen.
