The Câmara dos Deputados just authorized tax exemptions for the 2027 Women's World Cup. Here's what it means for municipal fiscal compliance.

Today's regulatory landscape in Brazil shows a push toward fiscal decentralization, enhanced consumer protection, and rigorous safety standards. From the opening of NFC technology to the restructuring of betting revenue distributions, the legislative agenda is moving rapidly to address technological challenges and administrative inefficiencies. Compliance officers must stay ahead of these shifts to mitigate risks and capitalize on new incentives.

1️⃣ Câmara dos Deputados — ISS tax exemptions for 2027 Women's World Cup
A new federal law establishes the legal framework for municipalities and the Federal District to institute ISS tax exemptions for companies organizing the upcoming tournament.
The measure directly affects international sports federations, event management companies, and local service providers involved in the planning and execution of the event.
Organizations should coordinate with local municipal authorities to track the publication of specific local ordinances required to activate these tax benefits.

2️⃣ Câmara dos Deputados — Free access to contactless payment technologies
A legislative committee approved a bill that prohibits mobile hardware manufacturers and operating system developers from charging access fees for NFC technology to third-party providers.
This development hits major technology companies and software developers while providing a competitive advantage to independent payment service providers and fintech firms.
The market should prepare for a shift in payment ecosystem dynamics as the bill moves toward a final vote, with fines for non-compliance reaching 5 percent of gross revenue.

3️⃣ Comissão Mista — Betting revenue transfer to the Federal Police
A joint committee of deputies and senators voted on a report that mandates a gradual allocation of fixed-odds betting revenue to the Federal Police fund reaching 3 percent by 2028.
This change impacts the financial planning of betting operators and the Ministry of Justice as it redirects a portion of gambling tax revenue toward law enforcement.
The industry must monitor the progress of MP 1348/26 as it establishes the definitive timeline for these fiscal transfers and the accompanying reporting requirements.

4️⃣ Câmara dos Deputados — Protection against political gender violence
Legislators advanced a bill to expand legal protections for women during the pre-candidacy phase of the electoral process to prevent harassment and discrimination.
Political parties are mandated to update their internal bylaws and compliance structures within 120 days of the official publication of this law.
Legal counsel for political organizations should begin drafting revised internal protocols to ensure full compliance with the extended civil rights protections.
