I want to buy goods from China to resell. Do I really need this thing called Radar?

TF Con · July 07, 2026

Yes, you do. Radar (import/export authorization) is your clearance to operate in foreign trade. Without it, your company can't register the import in the Portal Único Siscomex, the system run by Receita Federal (Brazil's federal tax authority). It works like a key: without the key, the door won't open. TF Con handles the authorization for you, puts together the paperwork, and follows the review by Receita Federal. That way you focus on finding a good supplier, and we handle the red tape. Before importing, talk to a TF Con accountant to line up the right Radar type for your volume.
