Why Brazilian Graphic Designers Need a US ITIN
- US agency and brand contracts — US design agencies require W-8BEN with ITIN before paying non-US designers.
- 99designs, Behance, Dribbble — US design platforms may require tax ID for high-earning designers.
- Adobe Fonts & stock licensing — US stock platforms (Shutterstock, Adobe Stock) require W-8BEN for royalty income.
- Fiverr and Upwork — Both require W-8BEN with ITIN for Brazilian designers receiving US client payments.
- Font & asset licensing — Brazilian designers selling fonts or design assets to US customers need ITIN for royalty compliance.
⚠️ 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.
ITIN for Brazilian Designers Working Globally
Brazil is home to a world-class design community — and Brazilian graphic designers, illustrators, and UI/UX professionals are in high demand by US companies. Whether you work through a platform like Fiverr or Upwork, or directly with US brands and agencies, you'll need an ITIN to complete the W-8BEN form that triggers correct payment processing.
ITIN Plus helps Brazilian designers get their ITIN quickly — flat $99, 8–14 weeks. After your ITIN is issued, we guide you through submitting your W-8BEN to every platform where you work.
