- Brazil’s Federal Revenue Service has launched Digital Tax Audits targeting BRL 300 million in PIS and COFINS discrepancies.
- PIS and COFINS are federal social contributions on gross revenue and imports, functioning similarly to VAT under the non-cumulative system.
- The audits use automated cross-checking of SPED digital records and electronic invoices.
- The goal is to identify calculation errors, improper tax credit claims, and underreported revenues.
