## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability brazilayer-sanctions-screening-6b0e66c8
```

Example prompt: Can you run an integrity and sanctions check on the Brazilian company with CNPJ 00.000.000/0001-91 — I need to know if they appear on any government blacklist like CEIS, CNEP, or the slave-labor registry before we sign a contract with them.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a comprehensive, single-call integrity check on a Brazilian company before contracting, onboarding, or due diligence. It is preferred over manual registry lookups because it consolidates five official sources (CEIS, CNEP, CEPIM, slave-labor blacklist, leniency agreements) updated daily, in one request. Choose this over general CNPJ registry endpoints when compliance or anti-corruption screening is the goal, not just registration data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed CNPJ format returns a 400 error
- CNPJ not found in Receita Federal registry may return empty results or a 404
- Temporary unavailability of one or more upstream government registries may return partial results
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns a 402 or 429 error
- Network timeout from upstream government APIs returns a 503

## How this service works

Sanctions and integrity screening for a Brazilian company (CNPJ) in ONE call, from official government registries updated daily: CEIS (debarred companies), CNEP (Anti-Corruption Law fines), CEPIM (nonprofits barred from federal agreements), the Labor Ministry slave-labor blacklist, and leniency agreements. Returns every match with category, authority, dates and legal basis, plus a clean-record flag. Free sample, no payment: https://api.brazilayer.com/v1/integridade/amostra

## Output

Returns a structured response listing every match found across CEIS (debarred/ineligible companies), CNEP (Anti-Corruption Law punishments with fine amounts), CEPIM (nonprofits barred from federal agreements), the Labor Ministry slave-labor blacklist, and leniency agreements. Each record includes the sanction category, issuing authority, start/end dates, and legal basis. Also includes a boolean clean-record flag indicating no matches found across all registries.
