Why Brazilian Stock Investors Need a US ITIN

  • US brokerage account — Interactive Brokers, TD Ameritrade, and other US brokers require W-8BEN with ITIN for non-US accounts.
  • Dividend withholding — Without ITIN, 30% US dividend withholding applies to all US-listed stock dividends.
  • W-8BEN submission to broker — Your ITIN goes on line 6 of W-8BEN, which your US broker requires.
  • 1099-DIV reporting — US brokers file 1099-DIV for accounts receiving dividends — your ITIN is required.
  • Capital gains from US stocks — Non-US investors generally don't pay US capital gains tax — but need ITIN to file correctly.
⚠️ 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.

US Stock Investing for Brazilians

Brazilian investors increasingly hold US stocks through US brokerage accounts (Interactive Brokers, IBKR). These brokers require a completed W-8BEN form — which needs your ITIN on line 6 — to process your account as a non-US holder.

Without your ITIN on file, US brokers apply 30% dividend withholding to all dividend-paying stocks in your portfolio. Since Brazil has no US tax treaty, this rate applies to all US dividend income. However, with your ITIN and proper W-8BEN on file, your account is correctly classified and you can file Form 1040-NR to address any tax obligations. ITIN Plus processes Brazilian investor applications in 8–14 weeks.
