Brazil’s monthly foreign trade statistics — exports and imports by NCM8 product code, partner country, and Brazilian state — proxied live from MDIC Comex Stat.

Tools

• br_trade_flows(flow, ncm?, chapter?, country?, state?, from, to, monthly?) — export/import value (USD FOB) and weight (kg) over a date range, filterable by product (NCM8 code or 2-digit chapter), partner country, and Brazilian state. Every code is resolved to its name in the response.
• br_trade_top_partners(flow?, ncm?, chapter?, year, limit?) — top partner countries for a product (or overall) in a given year, sorted by value.
• br_trade_top_products(flow?, country, year, limit?) — top NCM chapters Brazil traded with a given country in a given year, sorted by value.

Auth

Keyless. The upstream API is public and unauthenticated but rate-limited (observed: a request roughly every 10 seconds from a given IP); a tool call may occasionally need a retry if it returns MDIC Comex Stat: 429 ....

Data sources

MDIC Comex Stat — Brazil’s official foreign trade statistics system, run by the Ministério do Desenvolvimento, Indústria, Comércio e Serviços (MDIC). Figures come from Brazilian customs declarations (Receita Federal) and are published monthly. This pack calls MDIC’s own live query API per request; it does not download, mirror, or store any trade figures — every response is built from a fresh upstream call, with data_as_of set to the time of that call. MDIC’s data is published under Brazil’s open-government-data policy (Lei de Acesso à Informação, Lei 12.527/2011); attribute figures to MDIC / Receita Federal.

Why this pack exists alongside comtrade (UN Comtrade, which already covers Brazil): Comtrade reports Brazil at HS6, annually, with a multi-month lag. Comex Stat is Brazil’s own customs data at NCM8 (the national 8-digit tariff code, finer than HS6), published monthly, and broken out by Brazilian state of origin/destination — a dimension Comtrade does not have.

Country names are matched against MDIC’s own (Portuguese) country list, with common English aliases for major trading partners (e.g. “USA”, “South Korea”, “UK”). Brazilian states accept either the full name or the two-letter UF abbreviation (e.g. “Mato Grosso” or “MT”). NCM product codes must be the full 8-digit code; NCM/HS chapters are 2 digits (e.g. “12” = oilseeds and grains, which covers soybeans — Brazil’s single largest export).

A code or country/state name that does not resolve to anything in MDIC’s own tables raises an error naming what could not be resolved, rather than returning a silent empty result — but a valid NCM/chapter code with genuinely zero trade in the requested period will still return row_count: 0 / an empty rows/top_partners/top_products array, since that is a true answer from a working upstream call, not a failure.
