“Without any prior notification, Correios redirected packages originating in the US that were supposed to be processed in Curitiba, to the processing line in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. This is a measurement by Correios & Federal Revenue at the moment, regardless of our service. Only orders originating in China are being processed in Curitiba, given the volume (6 million orders per month). There is no prediction of normalization ”, pointed out Fishifast.
As a result of this measure, which has just come to light, taxation of products coming from abroad would happen more frequently. According to the international company, this new measure would be due to the holiday season at the end of the year.
“This is due to the moment of “fine-combing” carried out by the Post Office/Federal Revenue at this time of year, high season (October to January); however, this year the Post Office and the IRS are more stringent. Not only in taxation but also in the distribution of orders.”
The most popular shipping among customers and stores is ePacket. This will likely be the shipment most affected by this new measure. Regardless of what may happen now, purchases from other countries may be extremely affected, that is, they may take longer to reach the final delivery address. Also, there may be a higher fee on orders placed.
Post office official statement
After these statements were made by Fishifast and the comments took on large proportions, the press office of Correios decided to issue a note of clarification in relation to the information.
“Correios clarifies that the information disclosed is untrue. The company's three international centers – Curitiba/PR, Rio de Janeiro/RJ and São Paulo/SP – receive cargo from any and all countries, with no specialization or distinction,” the company said in a statement.
“We also clarify that Correios has no legal attribution to act in the customs inspection of international postal shipments. This competence belongs to the Federal Revenue Service of Brazil and the consenting bodies in the cases provided for by law. Examples of consenting bodies are the National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa), the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Resources Renewable Natural Resources (Ibama), the National Telecommunications Agency (Anatel) and the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (MAP)."
