Getting a piece home from Brazil

No permit requiredBrazil uses a negative list, not a permit regime. Only work produced up to 1889, individually listed objects and archaeological material are restricted. Contemporary work is free to leave. A free optional clearance exists if you want paperwork — up to 15 days, and not required.
