Foreign Ownership & Non-Resident Acquisition in Brazil
Foreign nationals residing or non-resident can freely purchase urban properties in Brazil without limit. However, rural land acquisitions by foreign individuals and foreign-controlled Brazilian companies are strictly regulated under Federal Law No. 5.709/1971 and INCRA regulations: individual foreign ownership cannot exceed 50 MEI (Módulos de Exploração Indefinida - typically 250 to 5,000 ha depending on municipality), and total foreign holdings in a municipality cannot exceed 25% of its surface area. All foreign buyers must obtain a CPF (Cadastro de Pessoas Físicas).

The desk
What we ask for, and why
03
Every Brazil submission is checked against the same working set of records before it can be reviewed for publication, governed by Lei de Registros Públicos (Lei 6.015/73) & Código Civil Brasileiro. None of this is a substitute for independent legal advice — it is the paperwork our desk asks an advertiser to produce, and cross-checks before an advertisement goes live.

Certidão Negativa de IPTU
Municipal property tax clearance certificate verifying zero outstanding debts.
