In Brazil we can not use any system that does not go through an approval, this approval is a costly and bureaucratic that only benefits the government for collecting taxes, for example to use a system he needs to undergo an evaluation where it needs through the a printer issue tax reduction-z and use taxes here called PAF and ECF, any company that uses software not approved and fined sambapos will be able to offer some solution to the approval system in Brazil?

Hello Luciano. Of course we're trying to do our best to macth our features to governmental rules. However this is something that needs to be implemented in Brazil by companies located in Brazil. If you think there is something we can do to solve it, just let us know that.
Hi Emmren National approval is a process evaluation system cashiers and is carried out by a certification body authorized, which seeks to ensure its proper operation before the fiscal requirements of different parts of Brazil. Therefore the question whether SambaPOS could offer some support in this sense, logical that a charge should be made for this procedure because for example in Brazil we have the sofware developers more they do adaptations or changes in other system codes. by law no company can use a system that does not go through this whole process I have attached below a link which contained such procedures

I saw now that in August there will be the launch of addons and so the question is will for example be some package or something to that effect with the representation Brazil, because here if the sofware is not approved companies receive very high fines, the approval process in Brazil and expensive besides benefiting exclusively to the government.
I see. I can't read Brazil language but I can guess how it works.
So the answer is already in your question. Following such procedure from Turkey is something extreme for us :) It should be done through a software company in Brazil. Maybe someone can see an opportunity here and develop an addon module that fits SambaPOS to Brazil laws. It is also possible to sell that module because SambaPOS License permits such closed source and paid add-ons. We can also provide technical support for these addons.
Unfortunately this is something more than a technical issue and I can't think a better solution. Keeping up an open source project is hard and our financial situation is not so bright :)
Additionally we won't launch add-ons in August. We'll start a funding campaign for people who wants to support our future projects. So we'll form a dedicated development team to improve our development power.
