🇧🇷Shipping from Korea to Brazil — DAP, not DDP
Only a locally registered importer can clear customs in Brazil, so we quote DAP: everything up to delivery is ours, import duty and taxes stay with the importer.
DAP (Delivered at Place) means TY quotes and carries the whole journey to your door: pickup in Korea, export customs, ocean or air freight and final delivery in Brazil. The one thing we cannot take over is import clearance — the declaration has to be filed by a locally registered importer — so duty and import taxes are paid by the importer, against documents we prepare. You still get a single quote and a single point of contact; you just see the duty line separately instead of buried in the price.
Why we quote DAP for Brazil, not DDP
A DDP price requires the seller to act as importer of record. In Brazil only a locally registered importer may file the import declaration and pay the taxes, so a Korean exporter cannot legally take that role. DAP is the workable equivalent — the same door delivery, with import duty and taxes settled by your importer. We tell you this before quoting rather than letting it surface at the border.

Import clearance support
Clearance in Brazil is filed in your importer's name. We prepare the documents, pre-check the HS code and estimate the duty so there is no surprise at the border — the duty and import taxes themselves are paid locally.
Final delivery & tracking
Delivery to your door or fulfillment center, with every shipment tracked on our portal.
Importing into Brazil
Yes. Every cosmetic needs an ANVISA notification (Grade 1) or registration (Grade 2) held by a Brazilian company before sale, plus Portuguese labelling. Because only a RADAR-licensed Brazilian importer can clear customs, we ship DAP: TY handles pickup, ocean freight and delivery to Santos, and your importer clears with documents we prepare.
