Oracle’s solution for Brazil is composed of the core Oracle EBS software, localizations, add-on localizations, and certified 3rd party solutions. The most important of this final category is the third party tax reporting solutions. In order to implement Oracle in Brazil and meet the local statutory requirements, you must select a 3rd party tax reporting solution.
The four Oracle certified 3rd party tax reporting solution providers in Brazil are:
- Synchro
- Mastersaf

When we sit down with clients to help them plan for an Oracle rollout or upgrade in Brazil, they inevitably ask us, “which 3rd party tax reporting solution should we choose?” The answer, of course, is something along the lines of, “it depends.” The truth is that all four options, when configured correctly, can meet your company’s needs in Brazil. The chart below provides a quick snapshot of some important factors to consider when evaluating the options.
Synchro and Mastersaf have been the two major providers of this type of solution for more than a decade in Brazil.
