Abstract: The aim of this paper is to analyze the objective to discuss the long turn economic impacts of tariff change, instituted in 2013, on domestic operations of the Brazilian cabotage freight sector, as well as explore some analytic potential of the dynamic Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model which captures some forms of market imperfections (such as increasing returns to scale, imperfect markets). The main findings of this application indicated that tariff policies promote positive long turn effects on GDP growth, exports, and investments. In addition, the sectorial projections of such policies suggest negative effects on cabotage sector and positive effects on sectors’ production, which are most dependent on cabotage.
