The Federal Revenue began an operation in Minas Gerais to collect, by the end of the year, more than R$260 million in social security contribution debts from around 3,000 rural producers.


The Regional Collection of Rural Social Security Contribution Project of the 6th Fiscal Region sent notices of Funrural regularization to individual rural producers who have legal actions discussing the constitutionality of this contribution.

Taxpayers must present a supplementary B2B Lead GFIP, month by month, reporting the gross revenue from the sale of production in the field and pay or pay in installments the contribution due. Those who wish can opt for the Rural Tax Regularization Program (PRR), which offers the possibility of a 100% reduction in interest and fines.

The measure came after a decision by the Federal Supreme Court (RE 718.847) that the contribution established by Law 10.256/2001 is constitutional. Due to the legal action, which prevented the withholding of social security contributions by legal entities purchasing the production, the responsibility for declaring to the Federal Revenue Service and for collecting the amount due, during the period in which the court decision was in force, falls directly on the producer. rural natural person responsible for operations.



Producers will not be entitled to a debt clearance certificate until regularization is carried out and will be subject to a fine of 75% plus late payment interest. With information from the Press Office of the Ministry of Finance.
