- Complementary Law No. 227/2026 establishes the IBS Management Committee (CGIBS) to govern, administer, and resolve disputes for the new Goods and Services Tax (IBS) in Brazil.
- The law creates a centralized, standardized national system for IBS, replacing the fragmented ICMS and ISS systems over a transition period.
- CGIBS will handle tax administration, collection, auditing, and revenue distribution among states and municipalities, working jointly with federal, state, and municipal authorities.
- The law sets operational rules for tax disputes, revenue sharing, and uniform application of IBS to reduce regional differences and increase legal certainty.
- 2026 is a key preparation year for businesses to adapt to the new system, improve data quality, and plan technology changes, though no immediate new taxpayer obligations are introduced.
