This document presents an overview of the cattle traceability arrangements in Brazil from calf to slaughterhouse. It is part of Dialogues between the European Union and Brazil on the Beef and Leather Value Chains, which has brought together importers, retailers, slaughterhouses, tanneries, exporters, livestock farmers, researchers, associations, and civil society organisations to reflect on sustainability, identify best practices and potential partnerships that can contribute to the improvement of these production chains. This was an initiative promoted by the European Union through the AL-INVEST Verde Programme in collaboration with the Instituto de Pesquisa Ambiental da Amazônia (IPAM).
