General information, not financial, legal, or tax advice. Verify current terms and eligibility with the provider before applying.

As of 12 May 2026, Kontist does not serve business customers in Brazil. Kontist is a German business account for freelancers and the self employed and requires the account holder to be resident in Germany. A business based in Brazil does not meet that requirement, so the alternatives below point to providers that do serve Brazil.

Does Kontist serve business customers in Brazil?

No. Kontist provides a business account for freelancers and the self employed in Germany, with built in tax estimation and bookkeeping tools, and the banking is provided through a German partner. It is available to people resident in Germany and is built around German tax and banking rules. Brazil is outside this footprint, so a person or business based in Brazil cannot open a Kontist account. As of 12 May 2026.

Eligibility for businesses in Brazil

Kontist is aimed at freelancers, sole traders, and self employed people who live in Germany and have a German tax registration. A person or company based in Brazil does not qualify because Kontist requires German residency, and there is no Brazil route and no Brazilian real support. Verify with the provider

What it costs locally

There is no Brazil pricing because the account is not offered there. Kontist publishes monthly plan fees in euros for the German market, with a free tier and paid tiers that add tax and accounting features. Balances are held in euros, and the Brazilian real and local Brazil account details are not supported. As of 12 May 2026

What local users report

There is no established base of Brazil business users because the service is not available in the market. Freelancers in Brazil who want an account with tax and bookkeeping tools generally look to local banks and to cross border providers that operate in the market. As of 12 May 2026, confirm the current position with each provider before relying on it.

Kontist does not appear to serve business customers in Brazil as of 12 May 2026. Verify directly with the provider. Providers confirmed available in Brazil are listed on the Brazil country guide.
