Foreign Trade and Customs
The growing internationalization of trade has resulted in an increase in the number of contracts that choose to settle their disputes through arbitration, where the applicable rules and the place for the resolution of conflicts are the parties' choice. In addition, the Vienna Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG), which has been in force in Brazil since 2014, is widely understood by the attorneys at Hapner Kroetz.
Taxes on such transactions have an impact on trading companies, which is why we have a group of attorneys focused on reducing tax costs. In addition, the proximity of the firm to the port city of Paranaguá facilitates direct action on customs issues resulting from the transit of goods.
