Brazil requires foreign stakeholders to appoint and continually maintain a Legal Representative (also known as an agent for service of process, statutory agent, or registered agent).

The Legal Representative is responsible for recognizing crucial communications and expediting those documents to the individuals who must to take action. Missing critical communications – either through lack of expertise or lack of availability – can expose your company to default judgements and administrative sanctions.

As your Resident Agent we will accept certain court documents on behalf of the foreign shareholder or quotaholder. We will also receive relevant compliance information and official correspondence.

Our partners will represent you on a personal basis. They will be your point of contact with the Brazilian business environment and public authorities from the start of your enterprise and throughout the life of your project in Brazil.

Our Partners can undertake the office of resident directors of your subsidiary or branch in Brazil.

In close cooperation with your legal and financial advisors, we help you implement guidelines, processes and sign documentation ensuring the your Corporation or LLC has proper controls and procedures in place.

The CEO/General Manager (Administrador in Portuguese) of your company must be an individual with permanent residence. We can take on this responsibility on a non-executive level. It can be short-term in case your soon to be CEO is in the process of getting a permanent visa, or long-term in case you do not have an expat to manage your local company and wish to have a trustworthy professional to control and secure your operations in Brazil.
