## 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`):

Example prompt: Can you pull the federal tax debt record from PGFN for Brazilian company CNPJ 11.222.333/0001-81 — I need to know the total amount owed, how many inscriptions exist, whether any are under judicial enforcement, and if there are any installment plans active?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need official federal tax debt data specifically from Brazil's PGFN/Dívida Ativa da União for KYB, supplier onboarding, or credit risk workflows. It aggregates across all CNPJ branches and provides breakdown by tax type. Prefer this over general company registry lookups when the specific question is about outstanding federal tax liabilities rather than company identity or ownership structure.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-existent CNPJ returns an error or empty result
- CNPJ with no federal debts returns zero values or empty inscriptions
- Temporary PGFN API unavailability may cause timeout or 503
- Missing required CNPJ query parameter returns a 400 validation error
- Data may be slightly delayed relative to real-time PGFN updates
