Why Brazilian Real Estate Investors Need a US ITIN

  • FIRPTA withholding — The Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act requires ITIN for non-US investors buying/selling US property.
  • Rental income reporting — Non-US owners of US rental property must file US tax returns (Form 1040-NR) requiring an ITIN.
  • Mortgage applications — Some US lenders require ITIN for non-resident mortgage applicants.
  • Property management companies — US property managers withhold 30% of rental income without a valid ITIN on file.
  • 1031 exchange — Tax-deferred property exchanges require ITIN for non-US participants.
⚠️ No US–Brazil Tax Treaty: Brazil has no income tax treaty with the United States. Your ITIN is still required for IRS compliance and W-8BEN filings, but standard US withholding rates apply.

⚠️ 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.

FIRPTA & ITIN for Brazilian Investors

Brazil has one of the most active foreign buyer communities in US real estate — particularly in Florida, Texas, and New York. Whether you're buying a vacation home, rental property, or commercial real estate, the IRS requires a US Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) for all non-US property owners.

Under FIRPTA (Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act), the buyer of US real estate owned by a non-US person must withhold up to 15% of the purchase price and remit it to the IRS — unless the seller has an ITIN and files a US tax return. Property managers also withhold 30% of rental income from non-US owners without a valid ITIN. ITIN Plus processes Brazilian investor applications in 8–14 weeks.
