Why Brazilian Residents Need a US ITIN

  • W-8BEN compliance — Required for all platforms paying non-US persons: Upwork, Amazon, YouTube, Stripe, Fiverr.
  • US LLC ownership — Brazilian owners of US LLCs must file Form 5472 annually — requires ITIN. $25,000 penalty for non-filing.
  • Amazon FBA & KDP — Amazon's tax interview requires W-8BEN with ITIN for non-US sellers and authors.
  • No US–Brazil tax treaty — Brazil has no income tax treaty with the US. Standard 30% withholding applies — ITIN is still required for proper W-8BEN filing.
  • US banking — Mercury, Relay, and Wise Business require EIN + ITIN for non-US LLC owner accounts.
  • IRS tax return filing — Brazilians with FIRPTA withholding or US rental income must file Form 1040-NR — requires ITIN.
⚠️ No US–Brazil Tax Treaty: Brazil has no income tax treaty with the US. Standard withholding rates apply (30% on dividends, 30% on royalties) — but your ITIN + W-8BEN is still required for all US platform and IRS compliance.

⚠️ Only an IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA) Can Certify Your Documents

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 documents, file your W-7 directly with the IRS, and track your application. No original passport mailing required.

ITIN for Brazilian Residents — Complete 2026 Guide

Brazil is one of the largest sources of international Amazon sellers, digital freelancers, and US LLC owners in South America. As a Brazilian resident earning US-source income — through Upwork, Amazon FBA, KDP, YouTube, or a US LLC — you need an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) to comply with IRS requirements.

Unlike some countries, Brazil has no income tax treaty with the United States. This means the standard IRS withholding rates apply (30% on dividends, 30% on royalties). However, filing a valid W-8BEN with your ITIN is still required for every US platform — and it certifies your non-US status for proper tax classification.

ITIN Plus is a registered IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA) and helps Brazilian residents get their ITIN in 8–14 weeks — entirely remotely, flat $99 fee. Email apply@itinplus.com to start.
