Ok I have took a look at this module and most probably this will be
the way to go.
Now I want to ask another question, which is about the taxes we have in Brasil.

All taxation of a product goes according to the NCM code, which is
basically a HS code
first 4 numbers and then other 4 numbers typical for the Mercosul countries.

This NCM code defines the various tax levels, as far as I know for
both imported products
and manufactured products locally are subject to the same taxation,
defined by NCM code.
NCM code is what we already have in Dolibarr 3.1.x as a custom code field.

My question is, do you think is better to extend the fields in the
products table to match
the taxations or use the custom code as a foreign key and create
another table where
the taxes will be defined in ?

By the way, the custom code in english afaik shoud be customs code.
