The Fiscal Challenge in Imports: Surplus ICMS Credits
Many companies that import directly face a common challenge: the excessive accumulation of ICMS (a Brazilian VAT-like tax) credits.
This amount, which should be an asset, is often not recovered and becomes “trapped money” that the government doesn’t refund, negatively impacting cash flow.
In extreme cases, this poor fiscal management can lead to serious financial difficulties; there have been cases of companies going bankrupt due to having millions in reais immobilized in ICMS credits.
Our Solution: Planning and Intelligence via the Fundap Incentive
To solve this challenge, Clac uses consolidated fiscal strategies. We operate under a tax incentive from the state of Espírito Santo. In practice, it works as follows:
- ICMS-Free Entry: When importing through our structure in Espírito Santo, the ICMS tax is exempted upon the goods’ entry.
- Payment Only Upon Resale: The tax is only paid on the outbound transaction, allowing for much more efficient planning.
- Balance for Your Company: This “tax design” allows your company to balance its fiscal accounts, avoiding the accumulation of credits and optimizing your financial resources.
