GNRE: How does the payment of interstate taxes work? 

What is GNRE? 

The National Guide for Collection of State Taxes (GNRE) is an essential document for companies involved in commercial transactions between Brazilian states.

It records sales transactions outside the place of production and aims to collect ICMS in other states, especially in transactions subject to tax substitution. 

To illustrate, imagine that a company X sells products to a state Y. The Collection Guide will document this transaction outside the place of production of a product, with the objective of collecting ICMS in other states.

How does Interstate Tax Payment work? 

GNRE is directly associated with the payment of interstate taxes.

When a company makes sales to consumers in other states, it is necessary to pay taxes in that state. The GNRE acts as a specific document for this purpose, and is filled out with details about the tax to be paid, the amount and company information. Payment is made to the state where the sale was made, ensuring that the taxes are correctly allocated. 

Who is required to issue the GNRE? 

One of the ways to issue this guide is through your State's GNRE Portal, but do you know who should issue this document?

The obligation to issue the Collection Guide falls on companies that carry out interstate sales. For those who do not carry out transactions to other states, issuing the guide is not necessary. In other words, the GNRE becomes mandatory to facilitate the payment of specific state taxes in the destination region.

Here is a screenshot of the GNRE Portal of Pernambuco:

To generate a Collection Guide, some fields must be filled in, such as:

• Favored State
• GNRE Type (Simple; with Multiple Source Documents; with Multiple Revenues)
• Issuing Taxpayer (Responsible for Paying the Tax)
• Revenue (ICMS Communication; ICMS Electric Energy; ICMS Transport; Tax Substitution by Assessment; etc.)

In the case of companies that deal with a large number of sales between states, it can be tiring to access the Portal and generate one by one. This is where tax management software and systems come in.
