Current position

Overview

Brazil's AI Bill (PL No. 2338/2023) was approved by the Federal Senate on 10 December 2024 and forwarded to the Chamber of Deputies in March 2025, where it was referred to a special committee. The Bill adopts a risk-based framework modelled on the EU AI Act, classifying systems from minimal to excessive risk, prohibiting excessive-risk systems, and requiring impact assessments for high-risk applications. No enacted date has been confirmed; the text remains subject to amendment. The ANPD is proposed as coordinating regulatory authority.
