Costs

How we calculate the import cost

There is no single price list: cost depends on volume, NCM code and the value of each product. That is why every shipment gets a quotation with each cost itemized.

International freight
Calculated by the volume (m³) of your cargo.
Import taxes
II, IPI, PIS/COFINS and ICMS, by the NCM code and value of each product.
Fixed shipment costs
Customs broker, fees and port handling, split in a shared container.
Port storage and inspection channel
Port storage depends on cargo value and dwell time. If the cargo falls into the yellow or red channel, time and cost increase.
Start small

A shared container every month, from about 5 m³

To test a product you do not need to fill a whole container. Small lots join the month's shared container.

When the product sells, you move to a dedicated container and to recurring supply.

Import structures

Who imports, with whose funds, and who issues the Nota Fiscal

Four possible routes. The structure is set with your accountant before the contract.

See the import details
  1. 01

    XT Brazil imports and resells

    We import the goods in our own name and resell them to your company in Brazil, in reais, with a Nota Fiscal. We confirm case by case which products can go this way.

  2. 02

    Importação por encomenda

    We import with our own funds to resell the goods to your company.

  3. 03

    Importação por conta e ordem

    We import on your company's behalf and account, with your company's funds.

  4. 04

    Your company imports

    Your company imports under its own RADAR; we handle sourcing, documents, freight and clearance. Currency exchange and payment to the supplier stay with your company.

No import structure, or a limited Siscomex capacity? We can discuss an alternative model. We also work with your own customs broker; in that case, the refund for clearance not completed does not apply.

Client cases

How clients work with us

Different starting points, the same formal import with a Nota Fiscal.

Client case · from test to recurring supply

From a test order to two containers a month

The client started with a small order to test the product in its own channel. Once sales were proven, it moved to buying from China with XT Brazil and now receives two containers a month.

Identity withheld

Client case · cost and risk

Lower cost and less risk than importing alone

The client compared importing on its own with our price per item delivered in Brazil, with freight, taxes and clearance included, and buying through us came out better value. It also lowered the risk: a formal import, a Nota Fiscal on every purchase and a company in Brazil that answers for the process. If the customs clearance handled by our team is not completed, we refund the goods and the freight.

Identity withheld

Client case · own supplier

They had a supplier in China; they needed someone to answer for the import

The client already had a supplier in China and hired XT Brazil for inspection, freight and customs clearance. It chose XT because the import is formal, with a Nota Fiscal, and because when a problem appears, we take it on and solve it.

Identity withheld

Client case · inspection

No team in China, so we check the goods

The client bought from China with no one to check the goods before shipment. Our team now inspects product, quantity, packaging and labels at the factory, and the goods only ship after that check.

Identity withheld

Client case · shared stock

Stock built together, bought locally in Brazil

For some products we build the stock together with the client. The goods stay in our São Paulo stock and the client buys locally as it sells, without waiting for a new import.

Identity withheld

Client names are kept confidential.

Categories we already work with

  • Cleaning tools
  • Tools and hardware
  • Bags and travel goods
  • Pet accessories
  • Agricultural drones and batteries
  • Electric cargo tricycles

Other products are taken on after a review of the product and the volume.
