When starting a business in Brazil you will want to make sure that you have crossed all your “T”s and dotted all your “I”s by checking on all the Federal, State and Municipal rules, regulations, fees and licensing procedures.
Whether you are opening a retail business in Brazil or providing a service you must make sure that you have properly registered and licensed your business and prepared for the taxes and fees involved. There is more to running a business than just having a storefront and opening the doors each day. If you are in any sort of retail business you’ll need to arrange suppliers, employees, set up pricing and tax compliance.
The proper licensing and registration of your business will help make it clear what other fees, taxes etc. you need to take care of before opening your business. No matter how good your business idea, starting a business in Brazil without licensing and registration is guaranteed to land you in trouble down the road.
