Nexus/BTG: 73% consider the end of the "blouse tax" positive

For 73% of Brazilians, the government acted correctly by ending the so-called "blouse tax". The result is from the Nexus/BTG survey, released this Monday (25).

Only 15% consider the decision to be wrong. The provisional measure signed by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) eliminates the collection of federal import tax for international purchases of up to US$50.

The survey was carried out by telephone between May 22 and 24, 2026. The survey interviewed 2,045 voters aged 16 or over. The margin of error is plus or minus two percentage points, with a 95% confidence interval.

The Nexus survey in partnership with BTG Pactual was registered with the Superior Electoral Court under number BR-04193/2026.

Understand how international purchases will be
For shipments of foreign products purchased on websites, for example, the 20% import tax that was in force will be zeroed on purchases of up to US$50.

It is worth noting that the end of the "blouse tax" will be an exemption granted only on purchases made by individuals.

As a result, there will no longer be any federal taxes imposed on these purchases. Only state ICMS (Tax on Circulation of Goods and Services) taxes will continue to be charged, which varies between 17% and 20%.

Purchases over US$50 are currently subject to 60% import duty.
