| BR_3085 (CDQ) | Condomínio Edilícios (pt) Building Condominium (en) | A Condominio Edilicio is a Brazilian building condominium, the collective body of owners of units within a building or development. It has legal capacity for matters of common administration, allowing it to contract for maintenance, staff, insurance and utilities and to obtain a taxpayer registration.

Suppliers to a building therefore contract with the condominium rather than with individual owners. | ||
| BR_3093 (CDQ) | Unidade Executora (Programa Dinheiro Direto na Escola) (pt) Executing Unit of the Money Direct to School Program (en) | An Unidade Executora is the executing unit of a Brazilian school under the direct money to school programme, typically a parents and teachers association that receives and administers federal funds for the school.

| BR_3131 (CDQ) | Entidade Sindical (pt) Trade Union Entity (en) | An Entidade Sindical is a Brazilian union entity, covering trade unions, federations and confederations of workers or employers.

They are non-profit representative bodies rather than businesses. | ||
| BR_3204 (CDQ) | Estabelecimento, no Brasil, de Fundação ou Associação Estrangeiras (pt) Brazilian Establishment of a Foreign Foundation or Association (en) | This category covers the Brazilian establishment of a foundation or association incorporated abroad, allowing a foreign non-profit organisation to operate locally with government authorisation.

| BR_3212 (CDQ) | Fundação ou Associação Domiciliada no Exterior (pt) Foundation or Association Domiciled Abroad (en) | This category covers foundations and associations domiciled abroad that are registered in Brazil for tax or administrative purposes without maintaining a local establishment.

| BR_3595 (CDQ) | Cooperative (pt) Cooperative (en) | Cooperativa (pt) | A Cooperativa is a Brazilian cooperative, a society of persons who join together to carry on an activity for their mutual benefit rather than for profit. Each member has one vote regardless of capital contributed, and surpluses are distributed in proportion to each member's dealings with the cooperative. Cooperatives are prominent in Brazilian agriculture, credit, health and work. They are subject to dedicated cooperative legislation and specific tax treatment. | Limited Co-operative Society |
| BR_3999 (CDQ) | Outras Formas de Associação (pt) Other Form of Association (en) | This residual category covers Brazilian associative structures that do not correspond to any of the specific association classifications. It captures membership bodies created under particular statutes or with unusual features. Such entities pursue non-profit purposes and cannot distribute results to members. Their governance and capacity follow from their own statutes and founding legislation. | ||
| BR_4014 (CDQ) | Empresa Individual Imobiliária (pt) Individual Real Estate Company (en) | An Empresa Individual Imobiliaria is a Brazilian individual real estate enterprise, a registration used where an individual carries out property development or subdivision activity in their own name. It exists chiefly for tax purposes, allowing the activity to be treated as that of a legal person. There is no separate legal entity, so the individual remains personally liable. It applies to specific real estate operations rather than general business. | Sole Proprietorship | |
| BR_4022 (CDQ) | Segurado Especial (pt) Special Insured Person (en) | A Segurado Especial is a Brazilian special insured person, a category covering small rural producers, artisanal fishermen and indigenous workers who carry on subsistence activity individually or in family regime. The status determines how they contribute to and benefit from social security, based on the sale of production rather than on payroll. It is a social security classification rather than a business form. It reflects the informal and family based nature of the activity. | ||
| BR_4081 (CDQ) | Contribuinte Individual (pt) Individual Taxpayer (en) | A Contribuinte Individual is a Brazilian individual taxpayer for social security purposes, covering self-employed workers, sole practitioners and others who work without an employment relationship. The classification determines contribution obligations and benefit entitlements. It is not a company form and creates no separate legal person. It appears in registers to identify individuals carrying on economic activity in their own name. | ||
| BR_4456 (CDQ) | Fundação (pt) Foundation (en) | Fund. (pt) | A Fundacao is a Brazilian foundation, a legal person created by an endowment of assets that must be applied to a purpose of public benefit such as education, health, culture, research or social assistance. It has no members and is administered by a board under its founding instrument. The public prosecutor's office supervises private foundations to ensure the assets serve the stated purpose. Its resources cannot be distributed to founders or administrators. | |
| BR_4483 (CDQ) | Sociedade Cooperativa (pt) Cooperative Society (en) | A Sociedade Cooperativa is the Brazilian cooperative society, formed by persons who contribute goods or services to a shared economic activity conducted for their common benefit. Voting follows the one member one vote principle and results are shared according to each member's participation in the activity. Cooperatives are treated as non-profit societies with a specific legal and tax regime. They are widespread in agriculture, credit, health, transport and work. | ||
| BR_4545 (CDQ) | Empresa pública (pt) Public Enterprise (en) | EP (pt) | An Empresa publica is a Brazilian public company wholly owned by the state at federal, state or municipal level and organised under private law to carry out an economic activity or public service. It has its own legal personality and assets while remaining under government direction, public audit and specific procurement rules. Postal services, banks and infrastructure operators use the form. Its staff are hired through public competitive selection. | Government Owned Company |
| BR_5002 (CDQ) | Organização Internacional e Outras Instituições Extraterritoriais (pt) International Organisation or Other Extraterritorial Institution (en) | This category covers international organisations and other extraterritorial institutions registered in Brazil, such as United Nations agencies, development banks and foreign diplomatic and consular missions. They enjoy privileges and immunities under treaties and headquarters agreements rather than being subject to ordinary Brazilian company law. Registration allows them to operate administratively in the country. Contracting with them requires attention to the applicable international legal regime. | ||
| BR_5386 (CDQ) | Organização Religiosa (pt) Religious Organisation (en) | An Organizacao religiosa is a Brazilian religious organisation, a legal person under private law formed to practise and organise worship. The Civil Code gives such organisations wide autonomy in defining their internal structure and governance. They may own property, employ staff and carry out social work, and they benefit from constitutional protection and tax immunity on activities related to worship. Their purpose is religious rather than economic. | ||
| BR_6155 (CDQ) | Associação (pt) Association (en) | Assoc. (pt) | An Associacao is a Brazilian association, a union of persons organised for a non-economic purpose such as sport, culture, education, professional representation or social action. It has legal personality once its statutes are registered, may own property and may generate income, but no profit may be distributed to its members. Members are not personally liable for the association's obligations. It is the most common form for civil society organisations in the country. | |
| BR_6168 (CDQ) | Sociedade em Nome Coletivo (pt) General Partnership (en) | S.N.C. (pt) | A Sociedade em Nome Coletivo is the Brazilian general partnership, formed only by natural persons who all answer for the firm's obligations without limit and jointly. Management is reserved to the partners, and the firm name is formed from their names. The partnership agreement may limit liability between partners but not towards third parties. The form is rare in modern practice. | |
| BR_7482 (CDQ) | Sociedade em Comandita por Ações (pt) Partnership Limited by Shares (en) | C/A (pt) | A Sociedade em Comandita por Acoes is the Brazilian partnership limited by shares, in which the capital is divided into shares but the managing partners are liable without limit for the company's obligations. Only shareholders may be appointed as managers, and their removal requires a qualified majority. The structure combines share based financing with entrenched management control. It is very seldom used today. | |
| BR_7572 (CDQ) | Sociedade Simples (pt) Simple Company (en) | S/S (pt) | A Sociedade Simples is the Brazilian simple company, intended for intellectual, scientific, literary or artistic activities carried on as a profession rather than as an organised business enterprise. It is registered with the civil registry of legal entities instead of the commercial registry. Partners' liability depends on the sub-type chosen, which may follow the limited liability model. It is the traditional structure for professional practices. | |
| BR_8517 (CDQ) | Sociedade em Conta de Participação (pt) Silent Partnership (en) | S.C.P. (pt) | A Sociedade em Conta de Participacao is the Brazilian silent partnership, in which an ostensive partner carries on the business in their own name while participating partners contribute capital and share the results invisibly to third parties. It has no legal personality and is not registered as a company, though it must be registered for tax purposes. Only the ostensive partner is liable towards outsiders. It is widely used in real estate ventures and project finance. | |
| BR_8662 (CDQ) | Sociedade limitada (pt) Limited Liability Company (en) | LIMITADA (pt) | A Sociedade limitada is the Brazilian limited liability company and by far the most common business form in the country. Its capital is divided into quotas held by one or more partners whose liability is limited to the capital subscribed, though partners are jointly responsible until the capital is fully paid in. It is managed by one or more administrators named in the articles of association. Its flexibility and simplicity make it the default choice for businesses of every size. | Private Company Limited by Shares |
| BR_9179 (CDQ) | Sociedade em Comdandita Simples (pt) Limited Partnership (en) | S.C.S. (pt) | A Sociedade em Comandita Simples is the Brazilian simple limited partnership, with managing partners who are liable without limit and contributing partners whose exposure is confined to their investment. Contributing partners may not take part in management or lend their name to the firm without losing that protection. The structure permits passive investment in a business run by others. It is rarely encountered in modern Brazilian practice. |

The CPF has eleven positions, of which the first nine are the number itself and the last two are check digits. The check digits are calculated by multiplying the digits from right to left by a descending sequence starting at 9, adding the products, taking that sum modulo 11 and then taking the result modulo 10. The check digit found is appended to the number and the steps are repeated to obtain the second one. |

Invalid checksum of CNPJ (Brazil)ACCURACY
|
BR (Brazil) | The last two digits of a Brazilian CNPJ are check digits derived from the preceding digits with a modulus 11 algorithm. This rule recalculates them and flags a CNPJ whose check digits do not match.
For the first check digit, the digits are multiplied from right to left by a decreasing sequence starting at 9, the products are added up and the total is taken modulo 11, the remainder is the thirteenth character. The same step is then repeated including that thirteenth character, the products are added up again and the total is taken modulo 11, and this remainder is the fourteenth character. |
