Neymar returned to Brazil to play for Santos after 12 years abroad, but he will face difficulties bringing his luxury car collection to the country.

During his time at Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia, the forward acquired vehicles such as Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Aston Martin, and Lamborghini. However, since 1993, Brazilian legislation has prohibited the importation of used cars, with the exception of models over 30 years old for collection purposes, which prevents Neymar from bringing his supercars into the country.

Among the highlights of the player’s fleet is a Rolls-Royce Ghost valued at $340,000 and a Bentley Continental GT with a 782 hp hybrid engine, potentially worth over $680,000. He also owns an Aston Martin DBX 707, a powerful SUV that reaches 310 km/h, along with a Lamborghini Huracán, a sports car priced over $850,000 that can hit 325 km/h.

Additionally, Neymar received four units of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class to distribute among his staff in Saudi Arabia.

Brazilian legislation allows the importation of used vehicles only in specific situations, such as for collectors or Brazilians with disabilities returning from abroad. Diplomats and public servants can also bring a vehicle if they prove that the sale in the country where they worked was restricted. In Neymar’s case, he could bring one of his vehicles temporarily for up to 90 days if he were driving it upon arrival in Brazil. However, the bureaucracy may make this process impractical.

As his contract with Santos is for six months, the player could take his cars to another country if he returns to playing abroad in 2025.
