The ANP's role in royalty distribution

The ANP is responsible for calculating, determining, and distributing royalties to beneficiary entities (Federal Government, States, and Municipalities). Royalties are distributed to beneficiaries according to various criteria established in Law No. 7,990/1989 and Decree No. 1/1991 (distribution of the 5% royalty share) and Law No. 9,478/1997 and Decree No. 2,705/1998 (distribution of the share above 5% of royalties).

The Agency upholds broad transparency regarding the funds distributed to beneficiary entities, as well as the meticulous execution of the operational stages inherent to the complex activity of royalty distribution nationwide to the Federal Government, states, and municipalities, in accordance with the competencies established in current legislation.

There is no set date for the payment of royalty amounts, according to applicable legislation. Nevertheless, the ANP is committed to ensuring that royalty revenues reach beneficiaries in the shortest possible time.
