Introduction and Recent Purchases

In this section, the speaker discusses recent purchases and their experiences with customs fees.

Recent Purchases

• The speaker recently made a video showcasing over 20 products they purchased, with only one of them being taxed.

• They express frustration with the government's increasing taxes on imports.

• The speaker asks viewers to share their own experiences with importing products.

Excessive Customs Fees for TV Box G7 Max

The speaker shares their experience of being heavily taxed for a TV Box G7 Max purchase.

Taxation on TV Box G7 Max

• The speaker bought a TV Box G7 Max during a promotion on Aliexpress for R$200.

• They were charged an excessive 123% tax, amounting to R$250.

• The declared value of the product was $195.99, but there was an additional charge of $24.60 for shipping, which they found unnecessary as they had chosen free shipping.

Additional State Tax (ICMS) in Minas Gerais

The speaker explains the additional state tax (ICMS) imposed in Minas Gerais and its impact on import fees.

ICMS Tax Calculation

• In addition to the federal import tax, Minas Gerais imposes a 25% ICMS tax.

• The calculation involves dividing the total value (including import tax) by 0.75 to determine the taxable base for ICMS.

• This results in significantly higher overall taxes compared to other states without ICMS.

Refusing Package and Seeking Refund

The speaker discusses their decision to refuse the heavily taxed package and seek a refund.

Refusing the Package

• The speaker decided to refuse the package and return it to the seller using Milhas Importações.

• They will receive a refund once the package reaches the seller in China.

• They mention the importance of choosing products with free returns for such situations.

Aliexpress' Inclusion in Remessa Conforme Program

The speaker talks about Aliexpress' inclusion in Brazil's Remessa Conforme program and its implications for import taxes.

Remessa Conforme Program

• Aliexpress has been accepted into Brazil's Remessa Conforme program, which imposes a 17% tax on purchases up to $50 directly on their platform.

• Products above $50 face higher taxes, potentially reaching 92% due to cumulative taxation.

• The speaker highlights that until this program is implemented on Aliexpress, importation rules remain as they were before, with random chances of packages being taxed or passing through customs without fees.

Randomness of Customs Fees

The speaker discusses the randomness of customs fees and shares examples from their own experiences.

Randomness of Customs Fees

• Customs fees seem to be applied randomly, regardless of product value.

• Examples include expensive cameras passing without fees while cheap phone cases or even a Pikachu toy being taxed.

• The speaker mentions importing multiple tablets, with some being taxed and others not, despite similar values.

Conclusion and Future Plans

The speaker concludes by sharing their plans for future purchases and invites viewers to follow them on social media for updates.

Future Plans

• They encourage viewers to follow their social media accounts for updates on this new purchase.

• The speaker emphasizes the uncertainty of customs fees and advises caution when importing products.

• Importers with more experience tend to continue importing despite uncertainties.
