STF Orders Daily 1% Fine for States and Cities That Fail to Account for Emendas Pix

The measure aims to secure traceability of event-focused transfers and fund federal audits through a dedicated account.

Dino fixa multa diária a entes que não prestarem contas de emendas Pix

Overview

  • Supreme Federal Court relator Flávio Dino ordered a daily penalty equal to 1% of each emenda for states and municipalities that have not filed required work plans or management reports on Transferegov.
  • The decision assigns the Ministry of Tourism ten days to identify and notify noncompliant entes and gives the Comptroller General of the Union five working days to deliver an audit schedule for the transfers.
  • The sanction covers emendas sent for events from 2020 through 2024 and stays in force until entes submit complete plans and reports so the government can trace how money was used.
  • The AGU and Tourism data show about 126 related plans with 72 approved and 54 needing completion, and the order immediately prompted local actions such as the Sergipe MP recommendation to suspend 2026 payments and ALERJ reconsidering emenda increases.
  • The move targets weak controls that let Pix transfers lack unique identifiers and 'umbrella' program classifications, raises scrutiny of links to Perse beneficiaries, and could shift fine revenue to pay for stronger audits and tighter rules on program lists.
