## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability brazil-cnpj-sanctions-debarment-screening-ceis-cnep-cepim-leniency-017686c3
```

Example prompt: Run a sanctions and debarment check on Brazilian company CNPJ 00.000.000/0001-91 — I need to know if they appear on any federal Brazilian blacklist like CEIS, CNEP, CEPIM, the leniency agreements register, or the Lista Suja forced-labor list, and whether they're currently sanctioned.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when performing KYB or vendor due diligence on Brazilian companies and needing coverage across all major Brazilian federal debarment and sanctions registers. This is the Brazilian-specific complement to OFAC/EU/UN global screening — essential for compliance programs with exposure to Brazilian counterparties, government contractors, or entities subject to Brazilian anti-corruption law (Lei Anticorrupção). Prefer this over generic global sanctions APIs when CEIS, CNEP, CEPIM, or Lista Suja coverage is required.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed CNPJ returns a 400 validation error
- CNPJ not found in any registry returns empty entries with is_currently_sanctioned: false
- Upstream Brazilian government registry unavailable returns 503
- Rate limit exceeded returns 429
- Payment not processed or x402 protocol failure blocks the request

## How this service works

Sanctions and debarment screening of a Brazilian company by CNPJ across 5 federal lists: CEIS (debarred companies), CNEP (anti-corruption penalties), CEPIM (barred non-profits), leniency agreements (Acordos de Leniência) and the forced-labor employers register (Lista Suja/MTE) — entries with validity dates and an is_currently_sanctioned verdict. The Brazilian complement to OFAC/EU/UN global screening, for KYB and compliance

## Output

Returns matched entries from up to 5 Brazilian federal lists (CEIS, CNEP, CEPIM, Acordos de Leniência, Lista Suja/MTE) with entry details, validity start/end dates, and a boolean is_currently_sanctioned verdict indicating active sanction status.
