RSHO\u2122 was the first medical cannabis product to receive Brazilian government approval for import when ANVISA removed CBD from the controlled substance list in January of 2015. The government agency issued a statement on its website and also explains how to apply for an import certificate, and HempMeds\u00ae Brasil began working to with patients on the phone and through their website to help them navigate the difficult process of approval. Then, on July 13, 2015, Brazil began waiving the import tax on shipments of RSHO\u2122 with ANVISA registration and documentation.<\/p>\n
Now, Brazilians may order RSHO\u2122 hemp oil products directly from HempMeds Brasil\u2122 and send their bill to the government for reimbursement. The RSHO\u2122 products are then delivered to the importer\u2019s home without the payment of federal taxes and fully subsidized by the government. All purchases of RSHO\u2122 by patients in Brazil are eligible to be covered by the government.<\/p>\n
