DDP Brazil, door to door from Shenzhen
Ocean 45–60 days to Santos, air 7–12 days to Guarulhos. Brazil is the heaviest tax regime of the three, and the price reflects it honestly.
Brazil clears against a CNPJ with a full tax stack: II, IPI, ICMS, PIS and COFINS. We show the breakdown on the quote rather than one blended number, because when a client asks why the invoice is higher than the freight rate, the answer should already be on the page.
Ocean goes to Santos, air to Guarulhos. NCM classification drives the entire tax calculation, so we agree the NCM with you before booking — a wrong NCM is the most expensive mistake in this lane, and it is not one that can be fixed after clearance.

FAQ
Why does the Brazil ocean rate run from 800 to 1,900?
The spread is not padding: it is LCL against FCL, Santos against other ports, and peak-season space. Send us volume and destination city and you get one number inside that range, with the basis written down.
Do I need a CNPJ?
Yes. Brazil imports against a CNPJ. Individuals can import under special regimes, but not at the volume this lane is built for, and we will say which applies before you book.
Why is Brazilian clearance slower?
Five taxes, state-level ICMS and heavy parameter inspection. We pre-clear the file while the vessel is at sea, which is the only real way to shorten the clock.
