How the Brazilian government buys concessions and permits
Here the private party is not selling to the government: it pays to use or buy a public asset — stalls in the municipal market, kiosks, land, decommissioned vehicles. The highest offer wins, and the process usually runs as an auction (leilão) or competitive bidding (concorrência), with a call notice and a deposit (caução).
What the tender notice usually requires
- Deposit or bid bond
- Highest offer as the award criterion
- Tax compliance
- Prior inspection of the asset
Typical activity code (CNAE): varies by contract subject. Make sure the company's registered
business purpose covers the activity before bidding — an incompatible CNAE is grounds for disqualification.
How to prepare to bid in Curitiba (PR)
Follow new publications daily: between the notice and the bid deadline there are usually about eight business
days, and much of that time goes into gathering documents. Download the tender notice and the terms of reference
from each tender page, check the specification item by item and work out your minimum price before the bidding
phase — including taxes, freight, payment terms and the margin that makes the contract viable.
Micro and small businesses (ME/EPP) get preferential treatment under Brazilian law: a tie preference, extra time
to fix tax certificates and, in smaller purchases, exclusive participation. See the step-by-step guide
how to participate in a tender.
