Brazil’s Federal Revenue Service opened a new voluntary correction period for PIS/Pasep and Cofins tax credits under its 2026 audit plan. It identified about 1.3 billion reais in discrepancies involving input credits on resale and declarations for freight transport services supplied by companies under the Simples Nacional regime.

Taxpayers can amend their filings by 10 November before audit procedures begin. In the previous round, alerts led to 900 million reais being corrected voluntarily. For taxpayers that did not use that opportunity, planned audits were expected to assess 1.8 billion reais in tax credits.
