Based on the proposed Tax Reform approved by the Chamber of Deputies, the effective rate of the new Brazilian tax over the consumption of goods and services would be 28.4%, points out a technical note from Ipea (Institute of Applied Economic Research).
It would be the highest in the world for a VAT (Value Added Tax). Today, the highest of its kind is that of Hungary, at 27%.
