E-commerce returns have become increasingly important in both Brazilian and American markets as online shopping grows. In Brazil, consumer protection laws (like the Código de Defesa do Consumidor) mandate a 7-day return period for distance purchases, influencing return policy standards. In the USA, return policies vary widely by retailer and are often used as a competitive differentiator. The handling of returns significantly impacts customer loyalty and brand reputation in both markets.
