What it is and what it is not

Brazil no longer publishes the official named list of exporting and importing companies: company-level foreign trade data is protected by tax secrecy. Official trade statistics come out aggregated by product (NCM), country and state, without naming the company.
This file identifies companies whose activity registered with the Receita Federal points to foreign trade or wholesale. They are not confirmed importers or exporters: we do not know whether a company imported or exported, how much, or which product. A company may declare a wholesale activity without trading abroad, and an importer may be registered under another activity (for example manufacturing or retail).
To prioritize, motivo_inclusion states the activity group, whether it is the main or a secondary activity, the other groups the company also declares, and whether the legal name mentions import, export or trading (50,386 rows).
For Brazil's foreign trade volumes by product and country (without companies), see our Brazil foreign trade by NCM and country file.

Exact CNAE list

5250-8/01 Comissaria de despachos and 5250-8/02 Atividades de despachantes aduaneiros (customs brokers).
5250-8/03 Agenciamento de cargas, except sea freight (freight forwarding), 5250-8/04 Organização logística do transporte de carga (cargo logistics) and 5250-8/05 Operador de transporte multimodal (OTM).
46.11 to 46.19: every subclass of Representantes comerciais e agentes do comércio (12 subclasses, 4611-7/00 to 4619-2/00).
46.91, 46.92 and 46.93: Comércio atacadista de mercadorias em geral (general-merchandise wholesale, mainly food, mainly farm inputs, or neither). CNAE has no specific "trading company" code; trading companies normally register under these classes.
46.21 to 46.89: the rest of wholesale division 46 (food, beverages, textiles, pharmaceuticals, machinery, building materials, fuels, chemicals, paper, scrap and others).

About the emails and phones

They are the contacts each company registered with the Receita Federal; for many it is the accountant's. 697,821 rows have an email used by a single company and 256,591 one shared by 10 or more companies (email_compartido_por_empresas). 253,717 rows have a phone shared by 10 or more companies.
474,133 rows have an email on a company domain and 740,928 a free-mail address (Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, Outlook, BOL, UOL, Terra, iG, Live or iCloud).
Syntax is validated, but no test emails were sent: some mailboxes may no longer exist.

Use cases

Selling foreign trade services: freight forwarders, customs brokers, cargo insurance, FX, import finance and customs software can filter by activity group and state.
Finding distributors in Brazil: foreign manufacturers find wholesalers and sales representatives by CNAE and municipality.
Sourcing: build lists of wholesalers by line (food, building materials, chemicals) with phone and email.
Prioritizing: combine motivo_inclusion (main activity, legal name mentioning import or export), size and share capital to keep the most likely accounts.

How we prepared it

Source: Receita Federal do Brasil open CNPJ data (Dados Abertos CNPJ), October 2026 edition (cut-off date 13 October 2026). We start from our national Brazil company file (9,951,931 active legal-entity establishments with a phone or email), with the same rules: no MEI, no sole proprietors or other natural-person types, no political-party bodies or establishments abroad, no partners or CPF.
An establishment is included when its main CNAE or any of its secondary CNAEs is in the CNAE list above. Every row has at least one valid phone or email.
Phones in E.164 (+55) with validated area code and the ninth digit added to old mobiles; emails lowercased, syntax-checked and without filler values. email_compartido_por_empresas and telefono_compartido_por_empresas are counted over the whole national register, not only this file.
CNAE descriptions are in Portuguese, as in the official classification.
