Brazil
Partner despachante aduaneiro in Santos and São Paulo, with our advance review of the DUIMP.
Brazil is the only one of the four with a fourth channel. The grey channel does not examine the goods: it examines the suspicion, and above all the declared value. Landing there is not fixed by an amendment; it is fixed by a valuation file that should have been built before the goods shipped.
What decides the operation here
- Parametrisation assigns green, yellow, red or grey. Grey is the one that holds cargo for months.
- The DUIMP is progressively replacing the DI in the Single Window and changes how value is declared.
- The NCM follows Mercosur, so classification carries across to Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay; for Chile it is reclassified to its tariff position.
- Clearance is signed by a registered despachante aduaneiro; we coordinate with ours and audit what is declared in your name.

4 possible outcomes when the declaration is filed
Every country names its channels its own way, but the logic is the same: the system decides how much gets reviewed, and that drives the days in storage. These are the ones in Brazil.
Green channel
Automatic clearance, no verification.
Red channel
Document examination plus physical verification of the cargo.
Grey channel
Special procedure over suspected fraud, including on the declared price.
