Key tips for using Peticionamento Eletrônico​

  • Always use the most current version of the ANVISA petition form — ANVISA updates forms periodically.

  • Follow ANVISA's document naming conventions for uploaded files — incorrectly named files are a common cause of administrative rejection.

  • Pay the petitioning fee (taxa de peticionamento) promptly — the petition is not formally accepted until the fee is confirmed.

  • Save your petition number (número de petição) — it is your primary reference for all subsequent correspondence with ANVISA about the submission.

  • Use ANVISA's petition status tracking to monitor progress — ANVISA publishes status updates online.
