Since 1988, Brazilian legislators have enacted 4163 new laws or norms — on average — per day.There is no single book that contains all of Brazil's laws. A lawyer attempted to compile all of the tax legislation into a single volume. It grew to be a behemoth with 41 266 pages printed on A0 paper (the largest type existent). The weight of the book was 7 tons. More than an elephant.Brazilian laws are expensive, ambiguous, and even absurd. Since you are not an entrepreneur in Brazil — if you are, I admire you — here are some examples of bizarre laws in Brazil to make you laugh.
