On September 29, 2023, Brazil’s Federal Revenue (Receita Federal do Brasil or RFB) issued Normative Instruction Nº 2,161 (IN 2,161/23). This instruction confirms the application of transfer pricing (TP) rules to transactions involving related parties abroad, entities in tax havens, and privileged tax regimes.
In accordance with Law 14,596, the OECD's "Transfer Pricing Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises and Tax Administrations 2022" will be used as a secondary reference for applying local TP rules. However, this application will only be valid if the guidelines are approved by the RFB and do not contradict existing local laws or regulations.
