This work looks into the extent of tax immunity relating to social contribution on export income, and also addresses the meaning and extent of tax exemption of Tax on Services of any Kind ( ISS ) levied on service exports. This paper is divided into five distinct chapters. The first chapter delimits the matter under study and its importance, and sets out the premises that will be pivotal to delve into this subject. In this chapter, we will thus analyze some aspects relating to the levels of tax competence outlined in the Brazilian constitutional system, nota-bly the allocation of jurisdiction among political entities; classification of taxes into distinct types; the characteristics of social contributions; the limits of appellate au-thorities; and the role of supplementary law. We shall then turn to the concept of extra-fiscal policy (extrafiscalidade) and its influence on the principles under the Constitutional Taxation System. Subsequen-tly, we will address two tax institutions relating to tax reduction, namely, tax immu-nity and exemption, delving into the interpretation of immunity and exemption rules. We will then delimit the concept of export transactions, analyzing their taxation in Brazil and defining the purpose attributed by the Constitutional System to export transactions. Finally, we will build critical and scientific views on two issues under scru-tiny, concluding that (i) immunity to export income also extends to the Social Contri-bution on Profits ( CSL ), Provisional Contribution on Financial Transactions ( CPMF ), positive exchange variations from export income and sales to the Manaus Free Trade Zone ( ZFM ); and (ii) the ISS exemption rule reaches the services whose results (namely, benefit) were earned by the foreign taker
