And in continuation of the measures adopted by the Tax Authorities to minimize the impact on companies of the crisis caused by the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, the Simples Nacional Management Committee issued Resolution No. 152, of March 18, 2020, deferring to 6 months the deadline for collecting federal taxes assessed under Simples Nacional, benefiting micro-enterprises, small businesses and individual micro-entrepreneurs (MEI), who are more vulnerable to the current market situation.

The portion relating to ICMS and ISS are excluded from Resolution 152, but will certainly be subject to postponement by regulatory acts of the States and Municipalities.

The Mazzucco & Mello tax team is available to assist companies that have opted for the Simples Nacional in adapting their tax compliance to the new deadlines granted by the Government.
