Setting Up Vendors for Brazil

Note:

To access the Brazil Localization SuiteApp documentation in Brazilian Portuguese (Português do Brasil), see Brazil Localization.

Brazil Localization adds specific fields to vendor records to enable you to enter relevant information about the individuals and companies with which you do business.

Before setting up a vendor for Brazil, ensure your role has the required permissions to edit vendor records.

For more information about creating vendors, see Creating a Vendor Record.

Some Brazil-specific fields and subtabs don't appear until you save the vendor records for the first time.

To set up a vendor for Brazil:

  1. Go to Lists > Relationships > Vendors.

  2. Click Edit next to the record you want.

  3. If the vendor is a marketplace platform, under Primary Information, do the following:

    1. Check the Intermediary Marketplace Platform box.

    2. In the Subsidiary ID in the Marketplace field, enter your subsidiary's username or profile identifier on their platform.

      The identifier can have up to 60 characters.

  4. Under Classification, do the following:

    1. In the Federal Tax Registration field, enter the vendor's federal tax registration number.

      • If the vendor is a company, enter the Cadastro Nacional de Pessoas Jurídicas (CNPJ) number. Use one of the following formats for the 14-digit number: 00000000000000 or 00.000.000/0000-00.

      • If the vendor is an individual, enter the Cadastro de Pessoas Físicas (CPF) number. Use one of the following formats for the 11-digit number: 00000000000 or 000.000.000-00.

    2. To set a default payment method for the vendor, in the Default Payment Method field, select the method.

      When you set a default payment method, NetSuite automatically populates the payment method in transactions with this vendor.

    3. If the vendor is subject to state taxes, in the State Tax Registration field, enter the state tax registration number.

    4. If the vendor is subject to municipal taxes, in the Municipal Tax Registration field, enter the municipal tax registration number.

    5. If the vendor is located outside of Brazil, in the International Tax Registration field, enter their Número de Identificação Fiscal (NIF).

      The NIF is a 40-character tax registration number assigned to businesses abroad by international tax agencies or administrative bodies. It's similar to Brazil's CNPJ.

    6. If the vendor does business in the Manaus Free Trade Zone, in the SUFRAMA Registration field, enter the number of their SUFRAMA registration.

      SUFRAMA stands for Superintendência da Zona Franca de Manaus. Use one of the following formats for the 9-digit number: 000000000 or 00.0000.00-0.

  5. If the vendor is a service provider located abroad and you send the EFD-Reinf with the Brazil Reports SuiteApp, under Beneficiaries Outside of Brazil, do the following:

    1. In the Information Related to Beneficiaries Abroad field, select the information related to earnings from beneficiaries located outside of Brazil.

      This field lists the options from EFD-Reinf's Informações relativas a rendimentos de beneficiários domiciliados no exterior table.

    2. In the Mode of Taxation field, select the mode of taxation that applies to earnings from beneficiaries located outside of Brazil.

      This field lists the options from EFD-Reinf's Forma de tributação sobre rendimentos de beneficiários domiciliados no exterior table.
