Residents and companies in Cotia that have debts with the City Hall will have an opportunity to settle their debts with discounts of up to 100% on interest and late-payment fines.
The measure is part of the 2026 Tax Recovery Program (PREFIS-26), established by Complementary Law No. 412, of October 20, 2026. Enrollment can be made starting Monday (26) and runs through December 18.
Taxpayers may join the amnesty online, through the Cotia City Hall Citizen Portal, or in person at the CIT (Integrated Tax Center), Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
For in-person service, it is necessary to schedule an appointment at one of the CIT units (see addresses below) and present an official photo ID and proof of current address. In the case of a request on behalf of third parties, a power of attorney proving representation powers must be presented. For companies, the articles of incorporation must also be presented.
The program covers overdue municipal debts registered as active debt, including taxes such as IPTU (Urban Property and Land Tax), ISS (Service Tax) and ITBI (Real Estate Transfer Tax), as well as fees and other municipal credits that meet the criteria of the legislation.
Taxpayers may choose between paying the debt in full, with a full discount on interest and the late-payment fine, or paying in up to 36 installments, with discounts ranging from 30% to 50%, depending on the number of installments.
“PREFIS-26 is an opportunity for taxpayers to settle financial pending issues with the municipality, taking advantage of special payment conditions available until December,” commented Cotia Mayor Welington Formiga.
The greater the reduction in the number of installments, the greater the discount offered.
See how the discounts work
It is important to clarify that the discounts are not applied to the original amount of the debt, but to the interest and the late-payment fine. Monetary correction and other charges provided for by law continue to be charged.
For individuals, the minimum amount of each installment will be R$ 50. For legal entities, the minimum will be R$ 100.
Who can participate?
PREFIS-26 is intended for individuals and legal entities with municipal debts registered as active debt, even if they are already being collected through legal proceedings.
Those with previous installment plans, still in progress or canceled, may also request the inclusion of the outstanding balance in the new program, provided they meet the requirements established by the legislation.
Taxpayers may choose to settle all eligible debts or only part of them. However, when debts are grouped in the same tax enforcement proceeding, the specific conditions provided for by law must be observed.
Debts arising from traffic violations, fines for breach of contract and other situations expressly excluded by the legislation cannot be included.
Enrollment deadline ends in December
Interested parties will have until December 18, 2026 to formalize enrollment in PREFIS-26.
To participate, an enrollment agreement must be formalized, identifying the debts, amounts, discounts and payment conditions.
At the time of the installment plan, an official identity document, CPF, proof of address and a statement of the debt must be presented. In the case of a legal entity, proof of updated representation link and a CNPJ card will be mandatory.
