Best business accounts for LLC and Corporations in Brazil

Snapshot

Limited companies and corporations in Brazil, such as a Sociedade Limitada, or LTDA, and a Sociedade Anonima, or S.A., open a business account, or conta PJ, under a registered CNPJ. Larger or multi owner companies often use a traditional bank for credit and treasury, while smaller LTDA companies can use a digital bank with no monthly maintenance fee.

Suits LLC and Corporations best
No single account suits every company. Digital banks fit smaller LTDA companies that want low cost and online tools, while traditional banks suit companies that need credit lines, treasury, and broader services.
Typical monthly fee
From no monthly maintenance fee at several digital banks for eligible LTDA companies to monthly package fees at traditional banks that scale with services, as of 10 April 2026.
Non resident position
A foreign owned company needs a Brazilian registered entity with a CNPJ and usually a Brazilian resident representative with a CPF and a power of attorney. Verify with the provider.

What LLC and Corporations in Brazil need from a business account

Limited companies and corporations need an account that supports their entity type and ownership structure, clear permissions for more than one signatory, and the credit and treasury services that match their size. Multi owner companies need to confirm that a provider accepts more than one partner, since some digital banks only accept single owner entities. Payroll, supplier payments, and tax payments through Pix and boletos are routine needs. Larger companies also weigh credit lines, cash management, and branch support. Eligibility rules and pricing differ between providers, so confirm both before applying, as of 10 April 2026.
