Confiscation is part of Law no. 14,973which provides for the use of unredeemed sums to offset tax relief on economic sectors. Despite this, the law sanctioned by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) establishes a six-month deadline for the citizen to contest the withdrawal and request the right to deposits in court.

Despite the demand for looting since the law was announced, the August was the month with the lowest withdrawal in 2024. R$255 million was requested. In May, the month with the highest amount withdrawn this year, R$328 million was requested via consultation on the platform.

Most people who have money to redeem have small amounts, between R$0 and R$10. Check:
