Company changes

Changing a company
What we can do

The changes we handle

Change of company name

We file the new registered name with the Commercial Registry.

Change of share capital

Raising the share capital is common as a company grows. We file the change for you.

Change of partners

Adding or removing a partner has to be registered with the Commercial Registry. We do it.

Change of registered address

A new address has to be filed with the Federal Revenue. We take care of the form.

Closing a company properly

Closing a company raises questions straight away.

A company that is not closed correctly can leave the owner liable for debts and fines later.

The steps to close a company

Dissolution agreement

The partners sign a dissolution agreement that formally ends the company. We prepare it.

Federal taxes

The company needs a federal tax clearance certificate before it can be closed. We obtain it and handle what stands in the way.

City and state deregistration

Depending on the taxes the company paid, it has to be deregistered with the city and the state. We check which and file them.

Commercial Registry

The closure must be filed with the Commercial Registry, with a set of documents we list for you.

Tell us about your company and talk to one of our accountants.

Why have a company number

A registered company opens doors that a person alone cannot. Some of them:

Take more payment methods

With a company number you can accept cards and other payment methods, and stop losing sales.

Better credit

Companies get better loan terms to expand.

Keep the clients

Many companies only hire suppliers that have a company number.

Hire good people

A registered company can offer the benefits that good employees expect.

Common questions

What are the articles of association?

The legal document that sets up a company: its name, address, partners and the rest of its details.

How do I choose my company's tax regime?

It takes a tax and financial plan: for your line of business, which regime means less tax and more profit. One of our accountants works it out and gives you the plan.

What is an MEI?

The individual micro-entrepreneur: a simplified form for people starting out, with monthly revenue up to R$ 6,750 and at most one registered employee.

What are ME and EPP?

Size categories that cap annual revenue: up to R$ 360,000 a year for an ME, up to R$ 4.8 million for an EPP.

How long does opening a company take?

Once we file the application, the company number and the articles of association are usually ready within 48 hours.

Can I open a company with a poor credit record?

Yes. Nothing prevents it, although banks may be harder to deal with when you ask for working capital.

What is the deadline for the company number?

It depends on the state registry and the city. We tell you the expected time for your case before we file the application, and keep you posted until the number is issued.

Can a civil servant open a company?

Yes, but not as the managing partner. Another partner manages the company and you hold shares only.

My taxpayer number has a restriction with the Federal Revenue. Can I still open a company?

First we clear the restriction with the Federal Revenue; once it is cleared, the company can be opened.

Which types of company can I open?

There are several: individual micro-entrepreneur (MEI), sole trader, single-member limited company, limited company and others. Ask us and we will tell you which one fits.

Which legal form should I choose?

It depends on revenue, the number of partners, employees and more. Tell us your situation and an accountant will advise you.

I am just starting out. Which type should I open?

With monthly revenue up to R$ 6,750 and at most one employee, we usually suggest the MEI, as long as your activity is allowed under it.

Can I register the company at my home address?

Yes, if the work is done online and the city hall (and in some cases the state treasury) approves the location.

I live in another city or state. Can you still open my company?

Yes. We open companies in any city or state in Brazil.

I changed my name when I married but did not update it with the Federal Revenue.

The partner's ID must match the Federal Revenue record, so it has to be updated before we can file the company.
