Brazil hits China beef quota; new sales face 67% tariff
InfoMoney·BR · CN·2 days ago
Brazil's beef exports to China now face a 67% total tariff after the 1.106 million tonne quota was exhausted, triggering a 55% surcharge on top of the base 12% rate. The Brazilian government is seeking to negotiate an additional quota with China. This raises costs for Brazilian exporters and may shift global beef trade flows, benefiting competitors like Australia and the US.
