As of July 1st, freight forwarders should change their import process when sending goods into Brazil, in alignment with new Customs regulations.
The Cargo and Transit Control (CCT) Import System is a ‘new system of the “Portal Único de Comércio Exterior” (Foreign Trade Single Portal) for the control of cargo and transit in imports that will progressively replace the Mantra System.’
All cargo records are now to be performed only on the CCT import system. Non-schedular flights will remain on the Mantra system. Training on using the system can be found here.
