Do You Ship Parcels to Brazil? Take Note, or Packages Will be Returned or Destroyed by Brazilian Customs as of January 1, 2020

The Ecommerce Shipping Podcast

As of January 1, 2020, all shipments to Brazil will require the recipients Tax ID # to be printed on BOTH the Shipping Label and the Customs Forms. This new requirement is to help ensure that Brazil will collect the proper taxes on packages being shipped into the Country.
The following Tax ID's may be used:
CPF# - Individual's Tax ID#
CNPJ# - Business Tax ID#
It has been recommended to put the Tax ID in the Company Name Line. That is, until all carriers can update their software and implement a special line for this information. Some carriers may already offer a space for this. Check with your carrier for more information. If shipping to an individual, this line will be empty and available for the Tax ID#. If shipping to a Company, In the Company Name Field on the Shipping Label, enter the Company name, and behind it the Tax ID#.
***Don't take this lightly, as according to reports, Brazil will not accept packages without this information listed on both the Shipping Label AND Customs Forms. Packages will be Returned (and you will be charged return shipping by your carrier), or your package will be Destroyed! Avoid delay of delivery to the customer, and additional expenses by making sure to include the Tax ID # of the recipient on both the Shipping Label and Customs Forms.
Here is a link to a Google Search which lists several resources that go into great detail about this new requirement.:
