New customs office remains without a start date
The new customs office on the border between Brazil and Argentina, in Foz do Iguaçu, has completed construction, but still has no date to start operating. According to the National Department of Transport Infrastructure (Dnit) and the Federal Revenue Service, the structure depends on technical inspections and final approval from the responsible bodies before entering operation.
According to the Federal Revenue Service, the work is practically finished, but it has not yet been officially received by the agency. A new technical inspection, carried out by the institution's engineers, should take place between this week and next.
Only after this assessment will it be possible to confirm if the structure meets all the necessary requirements to be cleared. Therefore, there is still no forecast for the inauguration of the new customs office.

While the new structure does not enter operation, service continues to be provided at the current customs office, which frequently records queues and slowness in the crossing of vehicles between the two countries. The destination of the building currently in use will still be defined after the inauguration of the new unit.

Dnit informed that, this month, it will continue the administrative procedures to officially receive the work from the inspection responsible for monitoring the construction. After that, the documentation will be forwarded to the Federal Revenue Service.
According to the agency, the inspection continues to monitor the implementation of adjustments requested by the Federal Revenue Service during the project analysis process. There is no forecast for the official handover of the work.
