Overview

A very important public body that foreigners should know about when living in Brazil is PROCON (Consumer Protection and Defense Program). PROCON is responsible for protecting consumer rights and ensuring that companies comply with consumer protection laws. He helps residents, Brazilians and immigrants, in resolving problems such as undue charges, defective products, misleading advertising and poor service. If a foreign resident faces difficulties with a company or service provider, they can file a complaint with PROCON, both online and in person. Knowing PROCON helps newcomers understand their rights as consumers and how to act when these rights are disrespected.
