ABNT is the acronym for Associação Brasileira  de Normas Técnicas

They are the standards writing organization in Brazil.  I got involved with
them several years ago, helping to translate IEC 950 into the local
Portuguese version.  The standard number escapes me right now, but it is
essentially IEC 950, with minor country deviations.  As far as I know,
unless something has changed very recently, compliance with the standard is
still voluntary at this time.

Hope this helps.

I don't have an address for ABNT with me here (I'm on the road), but I can
send them to you later if you want (just send me a private e-mail).
