Producer has until January 15 to regularize the situation with the Federal Revenue Service

Rural producers who exercise their activity as individuals have until January 15 to regularize their situation in the Register of Economic Activity of the Individual (CAEPF). As of this year, the Internal Revenue Service made registration with CAEPF compulsory.

The Federation of Agriculture of the State of Rio Grande do Sul (Farsul) emphasizes that the producer can authorize the rural union that has digital certification to register. Rural unions and producers who have questions about the process can contact the Senar-RS Collection Management Division for guidelines on the procedure through the email arrecadacao@senar-rs.com.br.

According to the Normative Instruction no. 1828/2018, an inscription must be issued for each rural property of the same producer, although in the same municipality. An agreement must also be awarded for each contract with a rural producer, partner, landlord, tenant or landlord, regardless of the landlord’s registration. The obligatoriness covers the rural producer that carries out activity generating social security contribution.

CAEPF– It is the registry managed by the IRS that gathers information on the economic activities carried out by the individual. It provides a means of collecting, identifying, managing and accessing the registration data related to economic activities carried out by individuals, serving as support for other systems of the Internal Revenue Service, as well as other public administration bodies. Since October it is possible to carry out the registration, which will replace the CEI registration as of January 15.
