Mato Grosso legislative support for disability associations

Overview

The state of Mato Grosso has introduced legislative measures to support philanthropic organizations serving people with disabilities, specifically the Associations of Parents and Friends of the Exceptional (APAEs) and Pestalozzi Associations.

In mid-October, Law No. 13.491/2026 was enacted, granting these entities an exemption from the Fire Safety Tax (TACIN) for properties and activities linked to their institutional purposes. This measure is intended to reduce maintenance costs, allowing organizations to redirect funds toward students and families. To maintain this exemption, entities must provide annual proof of their non-profit status and fiscal regularity, while still complying with fire safety standards.

Following this, the Legislative Assembly of Mato Grosso approved a bill in its first vote aimed at streamlining the transfer of parliamentary amendments to APAEs and similar non-profits. The proposed legislation seeks to reduce bureaucracy by allowing funds to be transferred through simplified partnership agreements without a public call, preventing resource delays caused by administrative hurdles.
