Everything Brazilian patients need to know about importing Medicanna USA products legally, including ANVISA authorization, Remessa Conforme, and prescription requirements.
These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Medicanna USA products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Hemp-derived CBD products containing less than 0.3% THC are legal under the 2018 US Farm Bill. Always consult a qualified healthcare provider before beginning any cannabinoid supplement.
ANVISA Resolution RDC No. 660 (published March 30, 2022) is the current Brazilian regulation that establishes the criteria for individual import authorization of cannabis-based products for medical use.
The complete process for Brazilian patients to legally import Medicanna USA products.

Receive a written prescription specifying the product, concentration, quantity (up to 6-month supply), and your diagnosis (CID-10 code).
Submit your application through the official ANVISA Solicita system (gov.br). Required documents: prescription, patient ID, and product information. Processing: 15–45 business days.
Once you have ANVISA authorization, place your order through our patient portal. Provide your authorization number, ANVISA file number, and shipping address.
We ship via Remessa Conforme — Brazil's international e-commerce import program, launched in 2023. Tax treatment may vary depending on courier, documentation and customs review.
Your package arrives with full documentation: CoA, invoice, ANVISA authorization number, and Medicanna USA lot traceability.
Remessa Conforme is Brazil's compliant international e-commerce import program, established by the Federal Revenue Service (Receita Federal) in 2023. It replaced the informal "blusa de frio" grey-market imports with a transparent, taxed, and legally protected framework.
Tax treatment for Medicanna USA products may vary depending on courier, documentation and customs review by the Receita Federal. Confirm the current tax treatment with your importing courier or customs broker before purchase.
