Overview
- The extensions were published in the Diário Oficial on Friday, July 10, 2026, and were signed by the president of the congressional mesa, senator Davi Alcolumbre.
- Medida Provisória 1.359/2026 remains active and authorizes the União to create financing lines for taxi drivers and cooperatives with program rules that tie vehicle purchases to environmental, social and economic sustainability criteria.
- MP 1.359 would allow financing under the Move Brasil program of up to R$30 billion, with loans administered through the Ministry of Finance and BNDES as the agent and with offers of up to R$150,000 for eligible new vehicles.
- Medida Provisória 1.360/2026 stays in force and changes the Código de Trânsito Brasileiro and Lei 12.009/2009 by removing the 21-year age minimum and mandatory specialist course and by requiring only category A or ACC driving authorization for paid motorcycle transport.
- The extensions reset the constitutional countdown but do not make the rules permanent; the Câmara and Senado must still approve the texts or Congress will need to issue decreto legislativo to regulate effects if the MPs lapse, and the Diário Oficial also recorded MP 1.361/2026 opening R$75.3 million and confirmed the expiry of MP 1.337/2026.
