Création d'une société en Brésil

Important : le droit d'un non-résident de détenir la société ne lui confère pas automatiquement le droit de vivre, de travailler ou de la gérer depuis ce pays. L'immigration, le permis de travail, la substance, le lieu de direction effective et la résidence fiscale sont évalués séparément.

• —Local operating subsidiaries for sales, e-commerce, services, manufacturing or employees in Brazil.
• —A single-owner or closely held business suited to the flexibility of a Sociedade Limitada.
• —A larger equity/investment structure for which S.A. governance, capital and publication rules are justified.

• —A Sociedade Limitada (LTDA), the most common limited-liability form, permitting one or more quotaholders.
• —A Sociedade Anônima (S.A.), closed or listed/open, a share corporation for more complex capital raising and governance.
• —A Sociedade Simples, a form for selected professional/intellectual activities registered through the relevant civil-registry route.
• —A branch of a foreign company in Brazil, requiring prior federal authorisation.

• —The REDESIM workflow covers viability, entity registration/CNPJ and licences; the relevant commercial registry and municipality determine local steps.
• —A foreign/non-resident shareholder or administrator grants a power of attorney to a representative resident in Brazil for statutory service and acts.
• —Foreign documents undergo apostille/consular legalisation where applicable and sworn translation into Portuguese.
• —A Brazilian registered/business address, qualified business codes, administrator, capital allocation and digital-signature/representative filing route are required.
• —CNPJ/CPF/CDNR and beneficial-owner registrations depend on the status of the foreign individual/entity and current Receita Federal rules.
• —Regulated sectors, foreign land/media/financial restrictions, environmental, health and import activity require separate eligibility/licensing review.

• —A passport or other acceptable ID for every founder, director, manager, signatory and ultimate beneficial owner (UBO).
• —Proof of residential address and tax residence; the registrar, agent, bank or other reviewer sets the document-validity period.
• —A transparent ownership chart through to natural persons and, for a corporate participant, registry documents, good standing and authorised resolutions.
• —A description of the product, markets, counterparties, expected turnover, source of funds and source of wealth, supported by evidence.
• —Viability data: municipality/address, business activities (CNAE), name, entity type, capital, quotas/shares and administrator.
• —The Contrato Social for an LTDA or Estatuto/formation resolutions for an S.A., together with representative powers and filings.
• —Apostilled foreign passport/entity records, good standing/incumbency, board resolution/power of attorney and sworn Portuguese translations.
• —Beneficial-owner/e-BEF information, foreign-investment data and source-of-capital evidence under applicable Receita/BCB rules.

1. 01Select an LTDA, S.A., Sociedade Simples or branch and review foreign-investment/sector restrictions and the tax regime.
2. 02Appoint a Brazil-resident representative, approve the power-of-attorney/apostille/translation route and obtain required foreign-party identifiers.
3. 03Complete municipal viability, prepare the corporate act and file with the commercial/appropriate registry through REDESIM.
4. 04Obtain the CNPJ and establish state/municipal tax, licensing, digital certificates, accounting, payroll and foreign-investment reporting.
5. 05The bank application starts after the corporate/tax stack and administrator/signatory authority are in place.

• —Selection of a Brazilian tax regime depends on entity, activity, revenue, ownership and eligibility; a local accountant determines corporate-income/social-contribution and indirect taxes.
• —PIS/COFINS, ICMS, ISS, IPI, payroll/social charges, customs and withholding apply according to the product/service and transaction flow.
• —Capitalisation, loans, dividends, royalties/services and related-party transactions require BCB, transfer-pricing, thin-capitalisation and withholding review.

Aperçu général, sans constituer un conseil fiscal ou juridique personnalisé. Les règles sont revérifiées avant le dépôt.

• —A bank/fintech reviews the CNPJ, corporate act, administrator/representative, local address, UBOs, foreign tax IDs and source of investment.
• —Operational readiness is evidenced by invoices/contracts, website, CNAE/licences, counterparties and projected BRL/FX flows.
• —A provider may require a Brazil-resident signatory, video or in-person verification; a CNPJ alone does not guarantee an account.

• —Full statutory bookkeeping and federal, state and municipal tax/reporting obligations through a local accountant.
• —Corporate approvals, quota/share and administrator changes, books/publications for an S.A. and registry updates according to form.
• —Payroll, labour, social-security, licensing, environmental/customs filings according to operations.
• —Foreign-investment/BCB reports and Receita Federal beneficial-owner/e-BEF updates for applicable statuses, events and thresholds.

• —Registering an LTDA without concurrent accounting, tax, digital-certificate and municipal setup can leave the company unable to invoice/operate lawfully.
• —An outdated power of attorney/representative or incomplete foreign-owner identification can block registry, Receita, BCB or bank procedures.
• —Incorporation does not conceal ownership or disapply AML/KYC. Registered agents, registries, tax authorities and financial institutions may obtain and verify UBO information.
• —The place of incorporation does not automatically determine tax residence. Effective management, permanent establishment, CFC, withholding and the owners' personal residence require separate analysis.
• —Company registration does not grant a regulated-activity licence, immigration status or a bank account.

• —Coordination of the Brazil representative, commercial registry/REDESIM, sworn translation, CNPJ and accountant/licensing hand-off.
• —Comparison of entity forms, ownership structure, tax links and substance requirements before filing.
• —Coordination of the registered agent, notary or local representative, translations, apostille and the complete corporate file.
• —Preparation of a bank-ready KYB data room and responses to legitimate compliance requests; approval and timing remain with the bank or EMI.
