One termo de embargo from start to finish

The lookup returns one environmental embargo as IBAMA, Brazil's federal environmental agency, publishes it: the term number and series, the embargo status (active, lifted or cancelled) and the record status, the date it was imposed and, if it was lifted, the date, type and reason of the lifting. It carries the responsible party with its name, party type and masked CNPJ or CPF, the case number and the infraction notice number, the description of the infraction, the state, the municipality, the location, the property, the coordinates, the embargoed area in hectares and its type, and the date of the last change. It is what you check before financing a farm or accepting a supplier with rural operations. You take the identifier from the embargo search.

  • Status and dates

    Active, lifted or cancelled, the embargo date, and the date, type and reason of the lifting when there was one.

  • Responsible party and infraction

    Name, party type, masked CNPJ or CPF, description of the infraction, case number and infraction notice number.

  • Place and area

    State, municipality and its code, location, property, coordinates, area in hectares and area type.

Common questions

From IBAMA, the Instituto Brasileiro do Meio Ambiente e dos Recursos Naturais Renováveis, which publishes the list of embargoed areas with each termo de embargo. Croma answers from the dataset it keeps updated daily with the whole source and returns the embargo structured.

Yes, it is free and needs no account. There is only a cap on lookups per hour from the same connection to prevent abuse, and one embargo per lookup. For volume, use the Croma API.

It is the key Croma uses to identify each termo de embargo, and the embargo search returns it with every result. It is not the term number or the case number: if you only have one of those, search for it first with the term number filter and copy the identifier from the result.

That no IBAMA embargo carries that identifier today. It is a definitive answer, not an error. A lifted or cancelled embargo does not disappear: it still exists with that status, its dates and the reason for the lifting, so found: false almost always means a miscopied identifier.
