It's a shame to hear that you and your wife are leaving Brazil. Indeed, the import taxes here can be a real challenge—especially for electronics and specialized items. It's great that you had a nice experience overall and learned some Portuguese along the way!

Just a quick reminder, since you became a tax resident here, it’s important to file the Communication and Declaration of Definitive Departure when you leave. This will help you avoid any future tax obligations with Brazil.

Best of luck with your move to Canada, and thank you for sharing your experience here!

Thanks a lot for that reminder! That's very helpful...it might have slipped my mind with all this stuff we're doing.

Enjoy the snow KKKKKKKK

You're  making a huge mistake moving to Canada.  Where in Canada. Toronto n Vancouver are so expensive... shit on everything has gone through the roof. Taxes are about 45%of your wage. I have lved all most of my life in Edmonton Alberta  and I tell you moving to there now is a huge mistake. We're  all leaving there.

Canada is a very nice country - but it's true that everything is very expensive.

When I lived there, a detached house in the suburbs of Vancouver was around 300K - now it's over 1M if you are lucky.  It's true that taxes are high - it's very hard to save for a rainy day.

IMHO, if you are in the electronics industry, the US is more business friendly.

Good luck in your move.
