What this is
The fees for the issuance of authorizations are non-tax revenues under the responsibility of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, through the Department of Plant Protection. These revenues are established to cover the costs associated with the examination of authorization requests, technical and regulatory verifications, and the validation of compliance conditions. They ensure that operators and products subject to authorization comply with current phytosanitary and environmental standards. The collection of this revenue is managed by the Department of Plant Protection, which determines the amount and oversees its administrative monitoring. Upon payment, an official receipt is issued to the applicant. This receipt serves as the legal proof of payment and is a prerequisite for the effective issuance of the requested authorization.
