The Federal Revenue Service estimates to collect R$ 50 billion with taxpayer self-regulation
The Federal Revenue Service estimates to collect R$ 50 billion in 2025 with compliance actions, self-regulation, and guidance to taxpayers. This information comes from the secretary of the department, Robinson Barreirinhas, who participated in the seminar "Two Years of the Fiscal Framework" this Thursday (11).
"In 2024, we had a collection of R$ 18 billion from compliance actions, taxpayer guidance, self-regulation, and transactions. We expect to reach R$ 50 billion this year," said the secretary.
During the event, Barreirinhas emphasized that the Federal Revenue Service has started to invest in guidance initiatives instead of large-scale auditing operations. In his assessment, this approach is more efficient since the administrative and judicial disputes resulting from audits are a lengthy process.
"We need to be partners with taxpayers not only because it's the right and fair thing to do, but because it's the most efficient from a revenue perspective," he stated.

My personal observation:
"It is truly inspiring to see the current administration transform revenue collection into an act of 'partnership.' After all, nothing says efficiency like relying on the goodwill of taxpayers to fill the holes that the administration itself helped dig. If this continues, they will soon launch a program called 'Donate to the Government: it's for the good of the country.'"
