The Aviation in Brazil

Aviation laws differ in every country. Obviously, some air travel happens internationally. In that case, the flights are subject to international aviation law. International aviation law is also meant to be applied to all types of air travel and regulates the standards of operation. If you are shipping your products within the limits of Brazil, however, it is important you fully understand the aviation laws that exist. While you should seriously consider speaking with a professional about aviation law before applying it to your business practices, here are some general guidelines you should know about:

• In Brazil, there are two types of aircraft: military or civilian. The military planes belong to the Brazilian Air Force or the FAB. All other forms of aviation are considered civilian. Obviously, if you were shipping goods within Brazilian, you would be operating civilian aircraft.

• Air space in Brazil includes any waters that are included in the jurisdiction, and territory that is separated by those waters. Outside these limits are not regulated under Brazilian aviation law.

• ANAC, the National Civil Aviation Agency, regulates all civil aviation. The five board members of ANAC are appointed by the president of Brazil.

• Because of Brazil’s landscape, transportation by Air Taxi companies is common. These operate almost exactly like taxis on land, and if you own a business for which employees work offshore, you’ll likely need to hire an Air Taxi company. These companies are under strict ruling as Brazilian civilian aircraft, so they are safe and reliable.
