What the report shows
Annual São Paulo state tax on owning a motor vehicle, charged on the vehicle's venal (market) value. It must be paid before the annual licensing can be issued; unpaid IPVA goes to state active debt and blocks the vehicle's CRLV.
Who needs it
car and motorcycle owners in São Paulo, foreigners and non-residents owning a car in Brazil, leasing and fleet companies, heirs of vehicles
Why people order it
pay IPVA on time, pay overdue IPVA before licensing, pay IPVA before selling or transferring a car, pay for an owner who is abroad
Legal limits
Anyone may pay a vehicle's IPVA; paying does not transfer ownership or liability. Use only the official Sefaz-SP Pix system – fake IPVA Pix pages are common. Debts already in active debt must be paid through the PGE portal.
