This is Gogplay. Following Google’s 2021 US tax information, 2023 Taiwan tax information, and Singapore tax information, developers have added another Brazilian tax information. As of now, all developer accounts only need to forcibly complete the US, Taiwan, and Singapore tax forms. Brazilian tax information is only enabled for specific accounts and specific users.
If you provide apps and in-app purchases to Brazilian customers in the Google Play store, Google or its payment processing partners will deduct the full amount of Brazilian withholding tax (WHT) from your revenue share payment, regardless of the available payment method. The tax rate is 25% of the customer’s purchase price (15% IRRF plus 10% CIDE).
Withholding tax only applies to non-local developers, but if you are a Brazilian developer but use other currencies other than Brazilian reals to receive payments, we will deduct withholding tax from your revenue share payment. You can follow the steps detailed here to migrate to an account that receives payouts in Brazilian Real, and learn more about currency support and tax payable in Brazilian Real.
As a service to developers, Google will continue to monitor changes in tax regulations and adjust/notify developers accordingly regarding Google’s tax practices.
Currently, there are two different situations for Brazilian tax, one for Brazilian payment profiles and Brazilian accounts (Brazilian tax), and one for accounts that provide services in Brazil (such as GP developers, Ads advertising).
For personal accounts with Brazilian accounts and Brazilian payment profiles, Brazilian tax information applies to buyers (Google Pay).
