In line with measures to prevent and combat tax evasion, corruption and money laundering, the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service (RFB) has established the obligation for national and foreign companies to identify their Final Beneficiaries. This requirement is currently regulated by Normative Instruction No. 2,290\/2025<\/a><\/b> of the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service, which updates previous provisions on the subject. <\/p>\n<\/div>

The main motivation behind this regulation is to increase transparency in corporate structures, allowing the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service to track and hold accountable the individuals who effectively control the companies. Failure to comply with this obligation may have serious consequences for companies operating in Brazil.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
