Brazil Beschaffungsprogramm
Brazil is best treated as a formal import market, not a parcel-first shortcut. It rewards committed small retailers and repeat importers who can run a disciplined Portal Único, DUIMP, and LPCO workflow before cargo moves.
Best fit for committed importers, distributors, and brand teams searching for sourcing from China to Brazil, DUIMP, LPCO, NCM classification, and importer setup.
Brazil imports now center on Portal Único workflows, with DUIMP, LPCO, NCM classification, and agency controls shaping the buying process.
- Small retailers with repeat replenishment needs
- Importers and trading companies
- Private-label brands
- Distributors and wholesalers
Plan shipping around importer habilitation, product-catalog data, NCM classification, and any required LPCO. Do not position Brazil as a casual small-parcel lane.
It fits organized buyers
Brazil expects habilitation, classification, and document discipline, which makes it a better fit for repeat buyers than for one-off parcel shoppers.
The control stack is still moving
Portal Único has pulled more agencies into DUIMP and LPCO, and the government still shows modular migration through September 2026.
Compliance is the competitive moat
Buyers who pre-check taxes, agency controls, and product data are in a much stronger position to source steadily and avoid delays.
- Confirm the product's NCM and whether any anuente applies.
- Verify importer habilitation and who will act as the legal representative.
- Build the product-catalog record with the required attributes before the first shipment.
- Gather invoice, packing list, origin proof, and any agency-specific documents.
- Simulate federal taxes plus state ICMS before quoting landed cost.
- Check whether the shipment date falls under the current DI-to-DUIMP transition milestones.
DI shutdown dates keep moving
Siscomex updated the shutdown calendar on March 20, 2026, with some milestones pushed into late April 2026 while other items remain scheduled later in the year.

MDIC said on October 7, 2025 that all import anuentes were on the Portal Único rollout path and that the full migration continues through September 2026.
MDIC Portal Único updateThe simplified route is narrow
The federal service page says DSI is only available in the cases defined by Receita rules, so Brazil is not a default casual parcel-import market.
Gov.br import declaration service- Choose a broker or operator with real DUIMP and LPCO experience, not only legacy DI handling.
- Ask for NCM and attribute validation before the purchase order is issued.
- Prefer partners who can manage product-specific anuentes, not just generic freight.
- Make sure they offer pre-clearance document review and post-entry support.
