ABIMED creates Foreign Trade Committee
Publicado em 28/02/2023 • Notícias • Português
ABIMED has just launched its Foreign Trade Committee (COMEX), which is linked to the Business Environment Sustainability Axis. The 1st ABIMED Comex Committee Regular Meeting took place on February 8th. The objective of the new committee is to deal with interest topics to the associates in the Foreign Trade area, with a view to improving the import processes. The work strategy will be put into practice through bimonthly meetings with a previously defined annual agenda. The 2023 meetings will take place in April, June, August, and October.
The agendas to be worked on in these meetings can be proposed by the members to the ABIMED coordination and sponsor. One week before the meeting, ABIMED will send an invitation to the members, informing them of the main agenda to be discussed. In order for everyone to have access to what was discussed at each of these meetings, the minutes, annexes, and presentations from each event will be made available on the Associate’s Portal. “The Association expects COMEX to be propositional on the topics and produce valuable content, and that this can advance the interest agendas to the sector in this area,” says Fernando Silveira Filho, CEO of ABIMED.
The agendas proposed to COMEX can be segmented into three groups. In the scope of the IRS, topics such as the Unique Portal; attributes and product catalog; and special regimes for equipment will be addressed. The proposal here is to bring in a representative of the agency, who can add consistent information about each subject to be addressed. In the Anvisa group, the topics initially proposed are Integrated AEO; LPCO; parts; and deadlines. And in the Sefaz group, the main topic is the agility of releases.
The meetings will take place at the entity’s headquarters, always at 2 PM. Write down the dates in your calendar so you don’t miss them:
