Brazil negotiates price reduction for border document with Paraguay

Document to cross Integration Bridge costs 3 times more on Paraguayan side
Brazil seeks Paraguay to reduce the value of the Frontier Vicinal Transit Document before the release of private vehicles on the Integration Bridge, scheduled for September 14. The price difference between the two countries motivated the diplomatic negotiation.
The document costs approximately 63 Brazilian reals in Brazil, while in Paraguay it was set at 234,154 guaraníes, equivalent to about 200 reals. Brazilian authorities consider the difference disproportionate and advocate for a reciprocity criterion between the countries.
The Federal Revenue delegate in Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil, reported that the matter is already being discussed in bilateral negotiations through Paraguay's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The goal is for the neighboring country to review the value to avoid creating obstacles for border region residents.
The document will be mandatory for inhabitants of Foz do Iguaçu (Brazil), Ciudad del Este, Presidente Franco and Hernandarias (Paraguay) who use the new bridge. The opening for private vehicles represents a significant change in border mobility, but the document cost still depends on an agreement between the two governments.
