Legaly buying a bike in Brazil
Is there anyone that have facts about legaly
buying a Brazilian registered bike in Brazil. Without beeing resident in Brasil. But as a European. And to legaly leave the country and drive around in South America. And to later legaly sell it. After returning to Brazil or in another country. And back up this information with official information. Not rumors. (I heard that some one some time ...) With buy and sell I mean to formally change ownership in official register. Not allowing someone to use it (PODER) With Legaly I mean just that. Go inte a dealer and buy a bike and get it registered in your name. And than drive it out of the country. No photoshop of documents, Not using a "friend" as owner to drive it over the boarder or other tricks. Like changing owner in no mans land between countries. Or to drive through the border and "hope for the best". Just because someone, sometime has passed a boarder, passing a sleepy guard, does not mean that it is legal. = And please stay to Brasil in this thread. This is not meant to be a general discussion. I know how it works in Colombia, and I would like to know if the same is valid for Brasil. Thanks for any relevant information |
overland travel
Landborders between Brazil and Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina and Bolivia are closed for Non Residents, so to this countries you can NOT travel legaly overland. But I am sure you can put your legal bike into an airplane and fly it legaly into any of the mentioned countries.
I hope this is relevant information for you. mika :scooter: |

Clarifications
Sorry,
I should have been more clear. I am not referring to Corona restrictions. I am thinking of plans for the future. But to standard regulations. As it was before Covid19. For example. Argentina has a law that a non resident person is not allowed to drive a Argentinian motorcycle out of the country. Example. They are going to produce Royal Enfield in Argentina, But you will not be able to buy an Enfield in Argentina and do a tour around South America. I have only checked the Spanish speaking part of SA. Not Brasil. But Brasil has a huge Honda Factory. Producing a lot if interesting and cheap models. So I had an idea to go to Brasil. Buy a Honda and make a tour around SA. And sell it before going home. Sometime in the future when Covid19 restrictions are gone. I try to find out if that will be possible or not. (I need to have something to do during lock down => Plan for future) |
Without getting into other aspects, you'll need a CPF before you can buy a bike (Brazilian Taxpayer ID (Cadastro de Pessoa Física)).

I don't think you will find a cheap bike in Brazil
You might want to go on Honda Brazil website and do the conversion A lot of money for a XRE 300 plus tax that you may get back when you leave |

I think it's worth pointing out that the cost of the bike in a particular market is irrelevant - because when you sell it, you'll also be selling in the same market, so your NET COST will be roughly the same wherever you are. In other words, buy high=sell high, buy low=sell low. |

And this bike should bring you anywhere in SA. I think if you will look for stuff from China you will find cheaper (but not better) options. |
You need to check if you will be able to get a CPF. If that is possible for a non resident, which I think it is, it should be as well possible to buy a bike.
To get a CPF for sure you need to show an address. |

Consistent with the information I got Adress=> CPF => Buy a bike. = Bom dia, Tem como fazer sim, é necessário tirar o CPF junto a receita federal e ter um endereço que possa usar para documentar a motocicleta. Assim pode rodar por todo o país , e pela América do Sul depende da legislação de cada país que for visitar, assim como a venda em outro país. Att,. = Then is the last thing to confirm. Other countries like Argentina has a law that you as foreigner can only use the bike inside the country. And not go out of the country. OBS It is the exit the is forbidden,It has nothing to do with if other countries allows you to enter. I have not heard of any such Brasilian law. But I would like to have confirmation. = Please keep top the topic. This is not a thread for discussion of bike types or prices or.... Just about official laws/ rules- = Thanks |
No problem to leave Brazil as a foreigner on a brazilian bike. Brazilian customs rarely stop you anyway. At most bordercrossings you have to search for them if you need them for something .

I do not understand What citizenship do you have ? In what country did you buy the motorcycle ? In what country was the motorcycle registered ? = Plates ? Going in via Chuy and exit via Inapari ? How do you start with going in. If you as a non resident buy and MC in Brazil ? How can a confiscated moto pass ? Confiscated by whom ? what ? Please explain Thanks |
I'm not going to try to translate #14 except to say that driving in and out of Brazil you pass large numbers of confiscated vehicles--parking lots full of them, both cars and motorbikes. I have no inside knowledge as to the specific reasons these confiscations took place, but they did have the desired effect, which was to encourage me to follow the rules rather closely.
Note to all: Erik_G, as the originator of this thread, requested information about people from other countries buying vehicles legally in Brazil. Wandering off-topic causes confusion. Hope that's helpful. Mark |
