- Brazil’s Federal Revenue Service and IBS Management Committee issued a joint resolution to help businesses transition to the new VAT system (IBS and CBS).
- Companies get a four-month grace period after the new rules are published, with no penalties for missing or incomplete IBS/CBS invoice fields or reporting.
- In 2026, IBS and CBS amounts on invoices are informational only; no tax will be collected if reporting obligations are met.
- New electronic invoice types are introduced, but existing electronic documents remain valid.
- Management responsibilities are clarified, other taxes remain unchanged, and 2026 will serve as a testing year with no penalties for mistakes.
