Event Organized by RGC Discusses the Future of Tax Classification With Product Catalog

Lecture Followed by a Panel with Companies Discusses the Main Changes in the Unique Foreign Trade Portal

RGC, a specialist in fiscal classification and special customs regimes, is promoting the event “RGC Experience – Get Ready for the Future of Fiscal Classification with Product Catalog” on June 21 at the Vitória Concept Hotel in Campinas (SP). Directed at invitees and streamed online, the event will feature speaker Alexandre Zambrano, an expert in Foreign Trade and Customs Law, as well as a panel with participating companies, such as Philips, Siemens, and 3M.

The event marks the launch of the HSDW LatAm platform, developed by the company to support the Unique Foreign Trade Portal (Siscomex), for product registration and monitoring of attributes and fiscal classification, according to the new format being implemented by the Federal Revenue Service.

“The focus of the discussion will be the transition from what is currently being used to what will be used regarding the fiscal classification of products. The objective of the event is to provide participating companies with information about the transitional phase we are experiencing with the portal and to raise awareness about the importance of starting to work on adapting their products for the new import scenario”, explained Fabio Rabelo, CEO of RGC.

The expectation is that the new Unique Foreign Trade Portal will begin to operate definitively in 2024. “Companies need to be ready for when the portal starts operating definitively with 100% of Foreign Trade operations within the Revenue Service’s website. For this, they will need an appropriate platform that meets the specifications of the Unique Portal, and the event aligns with that”, Rabelo points out.

The Siscomex Unique Portal is conceived within the “Single Window” approach, created by the World Customs Organization to facilitate transactions in international trade. Developed by the federal government to integrate information and processes related to foreign trade in Brazil. Essentially, it is a single interface used by government bodies and Foreign Trade operators. The main objective of the portal is to promote deregulation, modernization, security, and efficiency, in addition to unifying all information regarding importation, exportation, and customs control, to avoid duplications in data attachment.

Volvo

Volvo, one of the largest manufacturers of trucks, buses, construction equipment, marine and industrial engines, has been advised by RGC since 2007 for technical analyses of fiscal classification and ex-tariff regimes. The company will be the first to integrate the HSDW LatAm into its transition and monitoring process for the Unique Portal, fully connected with ERP and Foreign Trade systems.

The integration, security, and compliance resources of HSDW LatAm will make a significant difference when the Unique Portal environment is fully operational. The case will be presented at the event.
