Statute overview

About this statute

A qualifying company may deduct a presumed PIS/Pasep and Cofins credit tied to certain input purchases used to manufacture export goods, subject to sourcing and use conditions. The article suspends payment of certain taxes on specified domestic sales and imports for Reif beneficiary legal entities, and sets invoicing and repayment rules. This article amends Law No. 7,713/1988 so that item I of Article 9 sets 10% of gross income from cargo transport. Beneficiary legal persons may use the Reif benefits for up to 5 years after publication of MP 582, for eligible acquisitions, imports, and leases made after habilitation or co-habilitation. Retid beneficiaries may use certain tax benefits for up to 5 years after publication of the law, for purchases and imports made after their qualification.
