Customs dispatch aims to verify the accuracy of the data declared by the importer
with regard to the imported goods, to the documents produced and to the existing
legislation, with a view to the clearance and delivery of the goods to the importer.
All merchandise originating abroad, imported on a definitive basis or not, subject or
not to the payment of the Import Tax, has to be submitted to import clearance, which
is made according to the declaration presented to the customs unit in control of the
merchandise.
Generally, import dispatch is processed by means of the Import Declaration (DI),
registered in the Integrated Foreign Trade System (Siscomex), under the terms of
SRF Normative Instruction no. 680/06. However, in some situations, the importer may
opt for the simplified customs procedure, which can be processed by Siscomex or
by specific forms, on a case by case basis.
Before starting the import operation, the interested party must check if their capacity
to use Siscomex is required and if it is valid.
Import customs expedition is basically divided into two categories: dispatch for
consumption; dispatch for admission under a special customs regime or applied in
special areas.
Dispatch for consumption takes place when the goods entering the country are
destined for use as supplies, raw materials, production goods or intermediary products,
as well as when destined for own consumption or resale. Dispatch for consumption
aims, therefore, to nationalize the goods, the common import regime being applicable
to this category.
The dispatch for admission under special customs regimes or applied in special
areas aims to let into the country merchandise, products or goods originated abroad,
