Given this scenario:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>the amounts considered undeclared, during the current calendar year, are subject to the isolated fine, whose penalty is of 50%, as set forth by art. 52 of Normative Instruction of RFB No. 1,700, of 2017; and<\/li>\n<li>the amounts considered undeclared, after the end of the calendar year, will be disallowed.
