Bringing goods into Brazil: the USD 1,000 allowance nobody respects (and the 50% tax that hits travelers who get checked)

Brazil's traveler allowance is USD 1,000 by air, USD 500 by land. Anyone exceeding this must file the e-DBV and pay 50% tax on the excess. Whoever fails to declare and gets caught pays the same tax plus a 50% penalty on top. Enforcement is lower than it seems, but it exists — and it is expensive. Here is what counts, what does not, and how to avoid being the unlucky one of the day.
