There is no single answer for all of Brazil
Urban noise control can involve federal, state and, especially, municipal rules. Therefore, copying a time limit, sound limit or procedure from another city can lead to an incorrect decision.
The source also matters: commercial premises, events, construction, vehicles, residences and public-space activity can be subject to different rules, authorities and inspection processes.
What a business should verify
Before claiming compliance, identify the applicable municipal rule, zoning and permitted use, relevant times and criteria, licensing conditions and the responsible authority. Sound Performance complements this work by organizing experience and operations; it does not replace legal compliance.
A context reference
São Paulo’s Municipal Law No. 11,804/1995 concerns the acceptability of noise in that city. It is not a universal rule for other municipalities.
