ICMS: CE government maintains tax exemption for photovoltaic generators

Published decree updated the NCMs and resolved doubts regarding tax collection in the state

The Government of Ceará, through the Finance Secretariat, published in the Official State Gazette the Decree No. 34.794 / 2022, which updates the nomenclature of photovoltaic generators.

The measure eliminates doubts about the collection of ICMS (Tax on the Circulation of Goods and Services) when these products enter the State and maintains the tax exemption.

The new rules adjust the changes made to the NCM (Common Mercosur Nomenclature) to the classifications contained in Decree No. 33.327/2019, which regulates all ICMS legislation in Ceará. Thus, direct current photovoltaic generators now have the following codes:

Fernanda Pacobahyba, Secretary of Finance, said that the adjustment was necessary to align the information that guarantees the exemption of the equipment. “Now everything is clear. Since new NCMs were launched, there were doubts about the exemption from the tax. The State acted to update this nomenclature, bringing security to the list and exempting ICMS from photovoltaic generators,” she said.
