Can I take gifts to Brazil without having to pay taxes at customs?

I am bringing alot of gifts for my girlfriend. I heard that they may try to force me to pay taxes on certain items.

They really target electronics more than anything, so if you are planning on bringing a camera, a computer, and other things like that beware that you really may end up paying taxes. Now if it is for you personal use, not brand new, you might get away with it by saying that it is for personal use while you are in Brazil and that you will be taking it back with you. There is a US$500 for gifts that are tax exempt. So if you bring withing this range you will not have to pay taxes. (be ready to prove values with receipts)

Imports Required to Declare at customs:

-Animals, plants, food, weapons, ammunition and some types of medicines (controlled substances);
-Goods which exceed the amount of $500,00;
-Money in excess of US$10,000.00 (in cash, checks or travelers checks) or the equivalent in any other foreign denomination.

it depends on what you are bringing in ....certain items always have duty on them. check with the customs regulations of the country to see what you are allowed to bring in
