An import alternative needs a matching financing route.
Brazil requires separate review of technology alternative, import requirement and financing eligibility. The published Finame standard concerns new, domestically manufactured goods accredited with BNDES. An imported alternative must therefore not be moved into the same financing assumption on the price gap alone.
Two paths, one comparison
Guiding question: Does the alternative remain viable when financing and import conditions must also fit?
- Origin
- Accreditation
- Programme
- NCM
- Operation
- Requirements
- Matching financing route
The price gap alone does not carry over a financing assumption.
Occasions
- Domestically accredited offer versus international alternative
- Price comparison before confirmed NCM and operation
- Funding or financing assumption carried over unchecked from the original offer

Local context
NCM and the specific import operation determine the applicable import requirements. The conditions of the chosen financing type must be confirmed separately; this does not imply a blanket exclusion of all import financing.
Market basis · Local source
Local sources and published programme structures. The conditions confirmed for the specific case govern.
