Corpo de Bombeiros Curitiba PR

What Corpo de Bombeiros Curitiba PR does

Corpo de Bombeiros Militar do Paraná (CBMPR) is the state-level military fire and rescue service of Paraná, Brazil, founded in 1912 and headquartered in Curitiba at R. Nunes Machado, 100, Centro. It operates under the Secretaria de Estado da Segurança Pública (SESP) and is funded through the Government of Paraná budget plus variable fire-prevention licensing fees. The corps became an independent military institution in December 2022 after separating from the Polícia Militar do Paraná, and holds statewide regulatory authority for fire prevention and enforcement under Lei Federal 13.425/2017 (Lei Kiss) and Lei 19.449/2018.

CBMPR's service portfolio covers fire suppression, urban and aquatic search and rescue, vehicle extrication, height rescue, pre-hospital trauma care, forest fire combat, and seasonal coastal lifeguard operations (approximately 700 lifeguards in summer). Its flagship service, SIATE (Serviço Integrado de Atendimento ao Trauma em Emergência), is a partnership with SESA and municipal governments and was the first integrated emergency trauma system in Brazil. Specialized units include the GOST tactical rescue group, K-9 SAR units, the GCIF forest fire combat team, and drone operations for coastal patrol. Operational software includes the PREVFOGO licensing platform and Protege Fácil digital licensing portal, with internal systems SYSBM and SYSEFETIVO restricted to authenticated users.

The corps is organized into 5 Regional Commands (Curitiba, Londrina, Cascavel, Maringá, Ponta Grossa), 13 Fire Battalions, and 6 Independent Companies, providing coverage across all 399 municipalities of Paraná. The Escola Superior de Bombeiro Militar (ESBM), inaugurated in October 2025, serves as the in-house training academy. End-user segments are citizens across the state (emergency response, lifeguard services), commercial and industrial establishments (fire-safety licensing, project analysis), and municipal governments (cooperation agreements for emergency services). Revenue mechanics combine state-budget appropriations with licensing fees, where simplified online licensing covers the majority of low-risk commercial establishments under Lei 19.449/2018.
