THE INTEGRATED ADVANTAGE

Brazil is complex. Your entry strategy should not be.

Foreign investors often coordinate separate lawyers, accountants, representatives, payroll teams and advisors. We replace fragmentation with one accountable, multilingual command center.

Traditional model

  • 01Multiple disconnected vendors
  • 02Conflicting timelines and advice
  • 03No single owner of execution

The B2Br model

  • One senior point of contact
  • Legal, operational and market teams aligned
  • From first filing to daily growth

COMPANY FORMATION & FOREIGN INVESTMENT

Opening a company in Brazil: your key questions.

How can a foreign investor open a company in Brazil?

Start by defining the activity, ownership structure and local representation. The Foreign Desk coordinates shareholder tax registration, company documents and Commercial Registry filings, followed by banking, foreign capital reporting and the licenses relevant to the operation.

What documents should I prepare for company formation?

The preparation includes shareholder identification, foreign corporate documents where applicable, beneficial ownership information and powers of attorney. Chambarelli Advogados reviews the case-specific requirements for apostilles or legalization and sworn translation before filing.

How do Chambarelli Advogados and Impact Co. support investment in Brazil?

Chambarelli Advogados handles the business law foundation: corporate structuring, tax planning, contracts and regulatory analysis. Impact Co. connects market entry advisory with accounting, financial BPO, payroll and governance, giving the investor an integrated point of contact.

How long does it take, and what does opening a company cost?
