- Brazil’s consumption tax reform, introducing a VAT system with CBS and IBS, enters a test phase in January 2026, requiring invoices at a combined 1% rate but waiving payment if ancillary obligations are met.
- Key regulations, including Supplementary Law 214/2025 and Supplementary Bill of Law 108/2024, are still pending final approval and are crucial for the reform’s operationalisation.
