The president’s government (PT) published an MP (provisional measure) that stops the purchase of new vehicles by taxi drivers and app drivers. MP nº 1,362 of 2026 was published in the DOU (Official Gazette of the Union) this Tuesday (May 26, 2026). Read (PDF – 324 KB).
The credit is part of the Move Brasil program and creates the Move Applications modality.
The line will finance new vehicles worth up to R$150,000, flex, electric or ethanol-powered hybrids. The payment term will be up to 72 months, with a grace period of up to 6 months. Interest rates should remain below the Selic, currently at 14.5% per year.
For drivers, the interest rate will be 12.6% per year for men and 11.6% for women. Per month, the percentages will be 0.99% for men and 0.91% for women. Automakers interested in participating in the program must offer prices at least 5% lower than the list prices.
In addition, women will be able to finance security items equivalent to up to 10% of the vehicle’s value. Among the permitted items are cameras and shielding.
The government will require app drivers to have completed at least 100 rides in the last 12 months. The measure seeks to restrict access to professionals who regularly work in the activity and avoid a rush for registrations on platforms after the announcement of the credit line.
