BRAZILCHECK EVIDENCE REPORT

Lista Suja (Forced Labor Registry)
MATCH FOUND

MTE record: EXEMPLO COMÉRCIO DE MADEIRAS LTDA — included 2023-11-14. Infraction: conditions analogous to forced labor, timber extraction, Pará state. 12 workers affected.

DOCUMENT MATCH — matched on CNPJ 00.000.000/0001-00. This is a high-confidence match. Verify current status directly at sit.mte.gov.br before relying on this result, as the registry is updated periodically.

About this source: What it is: Brazil's official national registry of employers formally found — after a completed administrative process, with the right of appeal — to have subjected workers to conditions analogous to slavery. Reliability: exact document (CNPJ) match — the strongest-confidence check in this report. Implication: a listed company carries real reputational, financing, and customs risk (US Customs enforces Section 307 of the Tariff Act against forced-labor-tainted goods, and Brazilian shipments have been held under it before) — one of the most serious findings this report can surface.

CEIS/CNEP (Federal Debarment Registry)
NO MATCH FOUND

No active federal debarment or anti-corruption penalty found in Portal da Transparência's CEIS/CNEP registries.

About this source: What it is: Brazil's federal registries of companies formally barred from public contracts (CEIS) or penalized under the Anti-Corruption Law (CNEP), maintained by the CGU. Reliability: exact document (CNPJ) match, currently-active penalties only. Implication: a clean result means no active federal debarment or anti-corruption penalty exists as of the check date — this speaks to dealings with government bodies specifically, not necessarily private commercial risk.

Leniency Agreements (Anti-Corruption Law)
NO MATCH FOUND

No leniency agreement found under Lei 12.846/2013 in Portal da Transparência's registry.

About this source: What it is: Brazil's registry of Leniency Agreements — negotiated settlements under the Anti-Corruption Law (Lei 12.846/2013) in which a company formally admits to corruption, fraud, or cartel conduct in exchange for reduced penalties, maintained by the CGU. Reliability: exact document (CNPJ) match. Distinct from CEIS/CNEP above — a self-reported admission, not a unilateral penalty, so a company can have one without the other. Implication: a clean result means no such agreement exists on this registry as of the check date.

OFAC + UN Security Council Sanctions
NO MATCH FOUND

No match found against OFAC SDN list or UN Security Council Consolidated List for registered name EXEMPLO COMÉRCIO DE MADEIRAS LTDA or listed owners.

NAME-BASED MATCH ONLY — not a document/tax-ID match. A clean result here does not guarantee the entity is not sanctioned under an alias or transliterated name.

About this source: What it is: OFAC (US Treasury) and the UN Security Council both maintain global sanctions lists. Reliability: NAME-BASED ONLY — neither list carries a Brazilian tax ID, making this the weakest-confidence check in this report. Implication: a genuine match carries severe consequences — OFAC civil penalties currently run up to $377,700 per violation, or twice the transaction value if greater. A clean result here carries less certainty than the document-based checks above.

Supply Chain Transparency

EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) context — Trase.earth
Supply Chain Transparency (Trase.earth)
NOT IDENTIFIED AS AN EXPORTER

Not identified as a soy or beef export-side actor in Trase's Brazil supply chain datasets. Trase covers only these two commodities — this result says nothing about the timber trade this company is actually in, and doesn't certify anything about companies that aren't themselves commodity exporters.

About this source: What it is: Trase (trase.earth) publishes Brazil's most detailed public soy and beef export data, with a deforestation-exposure figure (in hectares) attached to each exporter. Why it matters: the EU Deforestation Regulation requires large and medium operators to prove soy, beef, and several other commodities are deforestation-free and file a Due Diligence Statement through the EU's TRACES system by 30 December 2026 — this section informs that risk assessment, it is not itself a Due Diligence Statement. Reliability: NAME-BASED, not a CNPJ/tax-ID match. Data currency: soy through 2022, beef through 2023.

About this reportThis report assembles evidence from public Brazilian government registries, Trase.earth supply-chain data, and international sanctions lists current as of the generation date above. It is a point-in-time evidence summary, not a legal opinion, credit rating, certification, or attestation of the company's compliance, character, or fitness for business. Name-based matches carry a real false-positive and false-negative risk and must be verified independently before being relied upon.
