Why Brazilian Amazon Marketplace Sellers Need a US ITIN
- Amazon Seller Central tax interview — Amazon requires W-8BEN with ITIN for non-US third-party sellers.
- US LLC for Amazon selling — Most Brazilian sellers use a US LLC, which requires Form 5472 and ITIN.
- FBA payout compliance — Amazon deposits FBA earnings to a US bank account that requires EIN + ITIN setup.
- Brand Registry — Amazon Brand Registry may require additional tax documentation including ITIN.
- Form 5472 penalty — Failure to file as a foreign-owned US LLC: $25,000 per year automatically.
⚠️ Only a CAA Can Certify Your Documents — Don't Risk Rejection
Many ITIN services are not registered IRS Certifying Acceptance Agents. If a non-CAA submits your W-7, the IRS issues a CP567 rejection notice. ITIN Plus is a registered CAA — we certify your passport, file your W-7, and track your application to the IRS directly. You never mail your original passport.
Amazon Third-Party Selling for Brazilians
Brazil is consistently ranked among the top countries for Amazon third-party sellers worldwide. Whether you're selling private label products, wholesale items, or handmade goods, accessing Amazon's US marketplace through a proper US LLC structure requires an ITIN for the foreign owner.
Amazon's Seller Central requires a completed W-8BEN (for non-US individuals) or W-8BEN-E (for non-US entities). Both require your ITIN. ITIN Plus helps Brazilian Amazon sellers get their ITIN and EIN in 8–14 weeks — with personalized guidance on the Amazon tax interview process.
