Besides the product price, what costs come up when I import?

Beyond the value of the goods, there's freight, insurance, and import taxes. At the federal level, there's the Import Tax, IPI, and PIS/Cofins-Import; at the state level, ICMS. There are also customs broker fees, port or airport expenses, and charges like the AFRMM for ocean shipping. Many people only calculate the product and get a shock at the end. TF Con puts together a spreadsheet for you with the real cost of the cargo, from shipment to your door. The rates change by product and by current rules, especially with the tax reform in transition. Confirm the percentages with a TF Con accountant before placing the order.
