Presentation

      Decree No. 6,022 established the Public Digital Bookkeeping System (SPED) in January 22, 2007, with changes by Decree No. 7,979 in April 8, 2013, which defined it thus:

      "SPED is the instrument that unifies the activities of reception, validation, storage and authentication of books and documents that integrate the taxes and bookkeeping of business owners and legal entities, even those immune or exempt, through a single computerized flow of information (as redacted by Decree No. 7,979 of April 8, 2013)."

      The Tax-Accounting Bookkeeping (ECF) replaces the Corporate Income Tax Return (DIPJ), as of calendar year 2014, with filing expected for the last business day of the month of September of the year following that of the bookkeeping period in the Public Digital Bookkeeping System (SPED).

Objectives

      The SPED project has the following main objectives:

• To promote the integration of tax authorities through standardization and sharing of accounting and tax information, following legal access restrictions.
• To Rationalize and unify accessory liabilities for taxpayers, establishing only one transfer of different accessory liabilities from different supervisory bodies; and
• To accelerate the identification of tax offenses through improved process controls, faster access to information and a more effective inspection of operations with data cross-checking and electronic audits.

1.               Premises of the SPED Project

• To promote an improved business environment for companies in the country.
• To eliminate unfair competition by raising competitiveness among companies.
• The official document is the electronic document with legal validity for all purposes.
• To use the ICP Brazil standard Digital Certification.
• To promote the sharing of information.
• To create, in legal and business legislation, the legal figure of Tax Bookkeeping and the Electronic Invoice.
• To maintain the legal responsibility for the security of the taxpayer's electronic Tax Bookkeeping records.
• To reduce costs for taxpayers.
• To minimize interference on the taxpayer's environment.
• To offer applications that issue and transmit the Digital Bookkeeping and the e-INV, for optional use by taxpayers.

2.               Benefits

      SPED provides several benefits, which include:

• Reduced paper consumption, with lower costs and environmental conservation.
• Reduced costs by rationing and simplifying accessory liabilities.
• Standardization of the information provided by taxpayers to government bodies.
• Reduced involuntary involvement in fraudulent practices.
• Reduced time spent with tax auditors at the taxpayer's office.
• Simplification and acceleration of procedures subject to control of the tax administration office.
• Strengthening of control and inspection through the exchange of information among tax administration offices.
• Faster access to information.
• Increased auditor productivity by eliminating steps to collect files.
• Taxpayers may exchange information among themselves from a default layout.
• Reduced administrative costs.
• Improved quality of information.
• Possibility of crosschecking accounting and tax data.
• Availability of authentic and valid copies of bookkeeping records for distinct and concomitant uses.
• Reduction of "Brazil Cost", and
• Improving the fight against tax evasion.

3.               History

      Constitutional amendment No. 42, approved on December 19, 2003, introduced clause XXII of art. 37 of the Federal Constitution, determines that the tax offices of the Union, of the States, of the Federal District and of the Municipalities must operate in an integrated manner, including the sharing of registers and tax information.

      To meet the Constitutional determination, in July 2004, in Salvador, the I ENAT - National Meeting of Tax Administrators took place, involving the Federal Revenue Secretary, the Treasury Secretaries of the States and of the Federal District, and the representative of the Finance Ministries of State Capitals.

      The meeting sought joint solutions in the three Government powers to foster: greater administrative integration, standardization and higher quality of information, cost rationalization and operational workload in service; more effective supervision, greater likelihood of taking coordinated and integrated tax actions, greater likelihood of tax information exchanges between the various government powers; large scale cross-checking of information with standardized data and uniformity of procedures.

      Considering these requirements, two Technical Cooperation Protocols were approved. One to build a synchronized register that meets the interests of the tax administrations of the Union, of its States, of the Federal District and of the Cities. The other, of a general nature, to foster the development of methods and instruments that meet the interests of the respective Tax Administrations.

      In August 2005, in the II ENAT - National Meeting of Tax Administrators, in São Paulo, the Secretary of the Federal Revenue Service, the Treasury Secretaries of the States and Federal District, and representatives of the Treasury Departments of the State Capitals, seeking to make the exchange of work among themselves more effective, signed Cooperation Protocols No. 02 and No. 03, aiming to develop and deploy the Public Digital Bookkeeping System and the Electronic Invoice.

      SPED, in the scope of the Federal Revenue Service, belongs to the Tax and Customs Administration Modernization Project (PMATA), which consists in the deployment of new processes supported by the appropriate integrated information systems, information technology and logistics infrastructure.

      Among the measures announced by the Federal Government in January 22, 2007, for the 2007-2010 Accelerated Growth Program (PAC) - a development program aiming to foster the economic growth of the country, increase employment rates and improve living conditions for the Brazilian population - in the topic on Improvements to the Tax System, is the deployment of the Public Digital Bookkeeping System (SPED) and Electronic Invoicing (e-INV) within a period of two years.

      In the same line as the actions stated in PAC aiming to remove administrative and bureaucratic obstacles to economic growth, SPED is intended to provide a better business environment for the country and to reduce the "Brazil Cost", promoting the modernization of the interaction processes between public administration and companies in general, as opposed to the pragmatic search for results, very common in projects aiming to simply increase tax revenues.

4.               Scope of Influence

      Most taxpayers already use computer resources for both accounting and tax bookkeeping. The images on paper simply reproduce the information from the electronic media.

      Easy access to bookkeeping, even if not yet available in real time, expands the possibilities of taxpayer selection and, in time of audits, sharply reduces its execution time.

      Scope of Influence

• SPED – Accounting
• SPED – Tax
• e-INV – Domestic Environment
• e-SINV
• CT-e
• Balances Central
  
  

5.               Requirement

      All legal entities, even those immune or exempt, are required to fill out the ECF, whether they be taxed by taxable income, deemed profit or estimated profit, except:

I - legal entities that choose the Special Unified System for Collection of Taxes and Payments owed by Small Businesses Small Size Companies (Simples Nacional), which handles Complementary Law No. 123 of December 14, 2006.

II - to public agencies, autarchies and public foundations; and

III - to inactive legal entities handled by Normative instruction RFB No. 1,306, from December 27 of 2012.

      It must be emphasized that, if the legal entity has Societies in Unincorporated Joint Ventures (SCP), each SCP must fill out and transmit its own ECF, using the CNPJ of the legal entity which is the ostensible partner and a code created by the legal entity itself to unequivocally identify each SCP.

      For companies required to hand in Digital Bookkeeping (ECD), one of the innovations of the ECF is the use of ECD balances and accounts for the initial completion of the ECF. Moreover, ECF also recovers the ending balances of the previous ECFs, from calendar year 2015.

      In the ECF, there will be completion and control, through validations, of parts A and B of the Electronic Taxable Income Journal (e-Lalur) and of the Electronic Journal of Calculation Basis of CSLL (e-Lacs). All balances entered in these books are also controlled and, in the case of part B, the balances will be matched from one year to another.

      Finally, the ECF will present the economic and general information forms in a new format for companies to fill out.

7.               SPED ECF                

7.1.           What it is

      The Tax-Accounting Bookkeeping (ECF) replaces the Corporate Income Tax Return (DIPJ), as of calendar year 2014, with filing expected for the last business day of the month of September 2015 in the Public Digital Bookkeeping System (SPED).

      The company should create the ECF file with its own resources. The file must be necessarily submitted to the ECF creation program for content validation, digital signature, transmission and viewing. You can fill out the ECF in the ECF creation program itself, using its field-editing feature.

      ECD data recovery is mandatory for companies required to submit the ECD.

7.2.           How it works

      From its accounting system, the company creates a digital file in the format specified in the annex to the Cofis Executive Declaratory Act No. 20/2015, which complements the NORMATIVE INSTRUCTION RFB No. 1524, FROM DECEMBER 08, 2014 (available in the Legislation menu).

      This file is submitted to the Validation and Signature Program - PVA provided by SPED. Use PVA to execute the following steps:

• Validation of the file that contains the bookkeeping.
• Digital signature of the book by the person(s) empowered to sign it, in accordance with Trade Board records, and by the Accountant.

      Once the bookkeeping is signed, send the transmission to SPED. After the transmission, a receipt is provided. You must print it, as it contains information relevant to later actions.

      Two signatures are required: one from the accountant and one from the legal entity. Only natural person digital certificates (e-PF or e-CPF) apply to the signature of the accountant.

      The following may sign the ECF with valid digital certificate (type A1 or A3):

1. The e-PJ or the e-CNPJ containing the same basis as the CNPJ (first 8 characters) of the business.
2. The legal representative of the company or a power of attorney appointed in the terms of Normative Instruction RFB No. 944, from 2009, with electronic power of attorney registered in the RFB website.

      Procedures to Register the Electronic Power of Attorney:

      In the RFB website, (http://receita.fazenda.gov.br), in Company, click All Services, select Electronic Power of Attorney and Password for Internet Search / Electronic Power of Attorney / Continue or alternatively https://cav.receita.fazenda.gov.br/scripts/CAV/login/login.asp.

1. Login with legal entity digital certificate or legal/power of attorney representative.
2. Select Electronic Power of Attorney.
3. Select Register Power of Attorney or another option, if appropriate.
4. Select Request Power of Attorney for the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service.
5. Fill out the data in the form presented and select Transmission of Statements/Files, including all of CNPJ, with Digital Signature via Receitanet.
6. Click Register Power of Attorney, or Clear or Back.

      The digital signature is checked for its existence, expiration date and validity for the legal entity identified in the ECF, at the start of the digital file transmission process.

      PVA also includes features to view the bookkeeping and generate/restore backup.

11.          Attention Points    

11.1.       Chart of Accounts Register (CT1)

      You must classify the chart of accounts in accordance with its class (CT1_NTSPED), as well as open new accounts to meet the chart of accounts issued by RFB. RFB asks taxpayers to perform this maintenance, in order to better identify taxpayer ledger accounts.

Important

Companies using a ledger account for cost and expense (or vice versa), must split those accounts in one or more accounts. If they choose not to split the chart of accounts, they must analyze the possibility of binding various cost centers to their reference chart.

      The account types are 01-Asset Accounts, 02-Liability Accounts, 03-Net Equity, 04-Income Statement Accounts, 05-Memorandum Account, 09-Others. This classification affects data creation for SPED ECF. In case of poor classification, the file created may return balance, calculation and statement errors.

11.2.       Reference Chart of Accounts (CVD)

      A chart of accounts based on DIPJ. Companies should generally use the files offered by RFB through the Cofis Executive Declaratory Act No. 20/2015.

      The reference chart of accounts purports to establish a relationship (a FROM-TO) between those of the company's chart of accounts and a RFB standard.

      The Reference Chart of Accounts must be adopted for the ECF as well as for Digital Bookkeeping - ECD, following the same binding procedure used for the chart of accounts of the company. For importing purposes, the files containing the equity and income statement accounts corresponding to the taxation method of the company must be concatenated. For example: considering the company is, in a general sense, a legal entity - taxable income - the reference files L100A + L300A must be concatenated.

     Important

      You must bind ALL accounts, INCLUDING the summary ones. These data are needed for sending the Fiscal Year Income Statement and the Equity Balance Sheet.

      Find these files in the path of the validation program PVA 3.1.8. Their nomenclature may vary.

C:\Arquivos de Programas RFB\Programas SPED\SpedContabil30\recursos\tabelas

Files:            SPEDCONTABIL_DINAMICO_2014$SPEDECF_DINAMICA_L100_A*

      SPEDCONTABIL_DINAMICO_2014$SPEDECF_DINAMICA_L300_A*

      You may bind the chart of accounts through a pre-registration via routine Reference Chart of Accounts (CTBA025) and, after linking it, through the chart of accounts register. You can use several references for multiple cost centers; though this is not recommended by accounting standards (CRC).

      In TDN, we offer sample text files you can import in routine Reference Chart of Accounts (CTBA025). However, as we are dealing with external tables from the Federal Revenue Service, the accountant of the company must revise them, as he/she is responsible for maintaining this information and its binding to the chart of accounts of the company, as follows:

• Exemplo_Plano_Ref_1_PJ_em_Geral_L100A_L300A.cve
• Exemplo_Plano_Ref_2_PJ_em_Geral_Lucro_Presumido_P100_P150.cve
• Exemplo_Plano_Ref_3_Financeiras_L100B_L300B.cve
• Exemplo_Plano_Ref_4_Seguradoras_L100C_L300C.cve
• Exemplo_Plano_Ref_5_Imunes_Isentas_em_Geral_U100A_U150A.cve
• Exemplo_Plano_Ref_6_Financeiras_Imunes_Isentas_U100B_U150B.cve
• Exemplo_Plano_Ref_7_Seguradoras_Imunes_Isentas_U100C_U150C.cve
• Exemplo_Plano_Ref_8_Entidades_Fechadas_Previdência_Complementar_U100D_U150D.cve
• Exemplo_Plano_Ref_9_Partidos_Políticos_U100E_U150E.cve
• We have created these examples from the tables installed in the validation program PVA DA ECD version 3.1.8.

11.3.       Employees Register (CVC)

      An optional register for entering those responsible for the accounting turnover of the company.  When registering, we recommend filling it out in all the default entries it participates in.

11.4.       Signatories (CVB)

      This is for entering the data of bookkeeping signatories. Two signatures are required: one of the accountant and one of the company. For the signatory signature, only natural person digital certificates can be used (e-PF or e-CPF).

      The following may sign the ECF with valid digital certificate (type A1 or A3):

      The e-PJ or the e-CNPJ containing the same basis as the CNPJ (first 8 characters) of the business.

      The legal representative of the company or a power of attorney appointed in the terms of Normative Instruction RFB No. 944, from 2009, with electronic power of attorney registered in the RFB website.

11.5.       Book Configurations Register (CTN) and Managerial Vision (CTS)

To register the managerial visions needed for various ECF records. These must follow Brazilian accounting regulations. After registering, bind the visions to the accounting books. For further information on how to create these visions, contact support and/or the accountant in charge.

Important

 A poor structuring of the managerial vision may cause system sluggishness and/or may crash the bookkeeping routine.

11.6.       Companies Register (SIGAMAT – SM0)

      Check whether the following information is filled out correctly: CNPJ, State Registration, IBGE city code (in this register, the State code is required), NIRE, date in company record, and address (public area, postal code, district, city, and State). If any of these data is transmitted incorrectly, the ECF may be refused.

Important

The system handles the address field (public area) with regard to the following typing aspects

• If the system finds a comma, it considers the entire text prior to it as the public area, then it considers the first occurrence after the comma as the number and the second occurrence as the complement.
  Example: Address: Braz Leme av., 1671 Floor1
  For the address above, the public area is “Braz Leme av.”, the number is “1671” and the complement "Floor1”.
• If the system does not find the comma, the last occurrence is regarded as the number.
  Example: Address: Braz Leme av. SN
  For the address above, the public area is “Braz Leme av.”, the number is “SN”.

12.          Utilization Procedures

In Protheus, the ECF creation process is divided into two stages. The first one is to record data, which consists of gathering information from the ERP in a SPED database (CS tables), so the system can properly sort the accounting data. The second stage is to create the data for composing the physical file to be submitted to PVA (Validation and Signature Program of RFB).

12.1.       Viewing the Bookkeeping Central

• To view the Bookkeeping Central, in module Managerial Accounting of Protheus, click Bookkeeping Central or search the routine by its code CTBS001:

Important

The integration between tables TAFST1 x TAFST2 is made for all records with status not yet processed, regardless of branch, WE DO NOT advise the integration of more then one company/branch at the same time. All TAFST1 records will be deleted, regardless of branch.

13.5.       View

                In this process, you view the data exported to the ECF and perform the Querying, Printing and Exporting of data to Excel (electronic spreadsheet).

                Procedure to view the data created in bookkeeping (CSs Tables)

14.          Frequently Asked Questions

01. Employee Register (Record 0930)

A set of information to identify natural persons and legal entities with which the company has some specific relationships. Only add the employees with which the company has one of the following relationships (table annexed to Cofis Declaratory Act No. 36/07):

Most company customers and suppliers do not meet the requirements to be added to this modality.

02. Reference Chart of Accounts

The same plan will be used for ECD as well as for ECF.

You must bind ALL accounts, INCLUDING the summary ones. These data are ignored in record J051, though needed for sending the Fiscal Year Income Statement and the Equity Balance Sheet.

03. Double Entries - Requirement

Extracted from Expert Opinion CT/CFC No. 12/03 (Rapporteur: Accountant Verônica Cunha de Souto Maior)
"Thus, we can infer that the double entries method is a fundamental principle for Accounting records, of universal use; therefore, in the current evolutionary stage of Accounting Sciences, no possibility exist of using any other method that does not reflect, or hold as premise, the equity equilibrium between origin and application of resources of a single accounting fact". (We underscore)

The same understanding applies to the use of a single account that receives all offsetting entries. Actually, it is neither the origin nor the application of resources.

04. Transmission Validations

      The following checks are made

• Validity of digital certificates used for signing the book and the requisition
• Superposition of period in relation to another ECF already sent
• Transmission integrity

05. PVA Status Query - Configurations

To query the PVA status, use IP 200.198.239.22 and port 80.

If the following error message appears Error when querying status. Error connecting to server, follow this procedure:

• In Windows, select Start / Execute, type cmd (to open the command prompt), then click OK
• In the open window, type telnet 200.198.239.22 80; if the entire screen goes black, you have connectivity
• If the following message appears Connecting to 200.198.239.22. Could not open connection with host in port 80: connection failure, the network you have used lacks connectivity with the Internet or some active network process (firewall) is blocking the access.

 06. Must I bind the summary account of the chart of accounts of Protheus to the reference chart of accounts?

Yes, you must bind both Detailed as well as Summary accounts. You must bind ALL accounts, INCLUDING the summary ones. These data are ignored in record J051, though needed for sending the Fiscal Year Income Statement and the Equity Balance Sheet.

07. Am I required to fill out the reference chart of accounts?

Yes, the reference chart of accounts is a required datum in ECF.

08. Where can I find information on SPED ECF?

      Now available

• The SPED EDF Manual (TOTVS Protheus)
• The SPED website in RFB (www.receita.fazenda.gov.br/sped)
• The SPED website at TOTVS (www.totvs.com/web/sped).

09. How can I export X and Y block data?

      The data from Blocks M and N will not be exported by Bookkeeping Center – CTBS001. Its data will be directly registered by the TAF module or by PVA.

15.          Explaining the layout orientation manual of Tax-Accounting Bookkeeping – ECF provided by SRF/RFB

The purpose of this manual is to guide you through the creation of the digital file equivalent to accounting bookkeeping. The layout  is organized in blocks, which are organized in records with data.

15.1.       File Composition

15.2.       Notes

• From the first to the last record, the digital file is made up of blocks, each of which refers to a set of information.
• The digital file is composed of information blocks, each with an opening record, data records and a closing record.
• After the initial Block 0, the other blocks are presented in the sequence found in the Blocks Table above.
• Except when otherwise specified, all blocks are required and the respective opening record indicates the presence or absence or entered data.

15.3.       Important – Link to manual published by RFB

      The ECF block record layouts are available in the layout orientation manual of ECF and are available for download in the link:

• http://www1.receita.fazenda.gov.br/sistemas/ecf/download.htm

15.4.       Blocks to be created by the Managerial Accounting module

Blocks X and Y will have their data partially exported depending on the availability of information.

15.5.       Blocks to be recovered by ECD or ECF

15.6.       Blocks not to be created by the Managerial Accounting module

15.7.       Generation

The entrepreneur or corporate partnership must create the Tax Accounting Bookkeeping file with his/her/its own resources. The file is necessarily subjected to the program offered by the Public Digital Bookkeeping System to validate content, digital signature, transmission and viewing. You can fill out the ECF in the ECF creation program itself, using its field editing feature.

The file must not contain month fractions, except in cases of opening, dissolution, split-off, merger or incorporation. In cases of split-off, merger and incorporation, the companies involved in these processes must hand in files, as follows:

• Companies Dissolved: files that regard operations up to the date of event occurrence.
• New Companies: files that regard operations from the date of event occurrence.
• Companies that Continue to Exist: files that regard operations up to the date of event and others for the subsequent period.

15.8.       Digital File Characteristics

File in text format, encoded in ASCII - ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1), not accepting compressed fields (packed decimal), zoned, binaries, floating point, etc., or any other text encoding, such as EBCDIC.

File with hierarchic organization, thus defined by quoting the hierarchic level to which each record belongs.

The records always start in the first column (position 1) and have variable sizes.

The row of the digital file must have its fields in the exact order in which they are listed in their respective records.

At the beginning of the record and at the end of each field, enter the delimiter character | (Pipe or Vertical Bar: character 124 of the ASCII table).

You must not add the delimiter character | (Pipe) as an integral part of the content of any numerical or alphanumerical fields.

At the end of each row of the digital file, after the aforementioned delimiter character Pipe , all records must contain the characters CR and LF, corresponding to carriage return and line feed (CR and LF: characters 13 and 10, respectively, of the ASCII table).

Example (record fields)

When lacking information, the empty field (without content, blank, null) must be immediately closed with the field delimiter character |.

Examples (field content)

Example (blank field in the middle of the row)

|123.00||123654788000354|

Example (blank field at the end of the row)

||CRLF

15.9.       General Completion Rules

This section presents the rules to be followed in all records created, excepting rules specific to certain records.

Field Format:

• ALPHANUMERIC: represented by C, all characters of ASCII table positions, excepting characters | (Pipe or Vertical Bar: character 124 of ASCII table) and the non-printable (characters 00 to 31 of ASCII table)

      The tax paid on deemed profit is permanent. It cannot, under any circumstances, be offset in future tax payments.

      The income tax calculation based on deemed profit encompasses all quarters of the calendar year, given the certainty of taxation based on taxable income or on estimated profit related to quarters not subject to arbitration, if:

1. The legal entity makes use of business and tax bookkeeping that states the taxable income in periods not encompassed by taxation based on deemed profit, or
2. If it can opt for estimated profit.

Attention

When taxed by taxable income, the legal entity may calculate profits quarterly, or annually with monthly payments by estimation, without regarding the result of the period in which it was subject to arbitration.

2. Political parties, including their foundations, as well as labor unions, non-profit entities (CF/1988, art. 150, VI, "c"), for as long as they respect the terms of art. 169 of Decree No. 3,000 of 1999.

      Educational institutions and of social services, for the purpose of applying article 150, Vl, "c", of the Federal Constitution, are regarded as immune for as long as they render the services for which they were established, to the benefit of the general population, complementing the activities of the State, not-for-profit.

      An educational or social service institution is regarded as non-profit when no surplus is found in its accounts or, if a surplus occurs in a given fiscal year, it targets the aforesaid result entirely to the upkeep and development of its social objectives (Law No. 9,718, of 1998, art. 10).

      To benefit from the immunity, the institutions mentioned in the previous paragraph are required to meet the following requirements:

1. They must not pay, by any means, their directors for the services rendered.
2. They must apply their resources fully to the maintenance and development of their social objectives.
3. They must maintain a complete bookkeeping of their revenues and expenses in books vested with the formal procedures that ensure their respective accuracy.
4. They must keep in good order, until any actions that pertain them have expired, the documents that prove the origin of their revenues and the incurring of their expenses, and the execution of any other actions or operations that may change their equity status.
5. They must hand in, annually, the DIPJ, in compliance with the relevant act of the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service.
6. They must collect the taxes withheld on the revenues they have paid or credited, and the social security payments related to their employees, as well as fulfill the ancillary duties derived therein.

8. They must meet other requirements, established by specific laws, pertaining the operation of the aforesaid entities.

The following entities are immune from CSLL:

      Charities of social welfare (Federal Constitution, art. 195, § 7) which, besides meeting the requirements for IRPJ immunity, must also cumulatively meet the following requirements:

1. Entities recognized as of public benefit, whether at the city, state or federal levels, or in the Federal District.
2. Entities bearing the Registration and Certificate of Charitable Entities of Social Welfare, provided by the Ministries of Social Development and Fight Against Hunger, or of Health or Education, depending on their respective areas of activity.
3. They must cumulatively meet the following requirements:

• Their directors, advisors, partners, founders or benefactors must not receive compensation, advantages or benefits, whether directly or indirectly, by any means or rights, due to their competences, functions or activities to them attributed by the respective acts of incorporation.
• They must fully invest their incomes, their resources and occasional surpluses in the national territory, in the upkeep and development of their institutional objectives.
• They must hand in a clearance certificate or a liability certificate with clearance effects of debts related to the taxes levied by the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service, and certificate of good standing with the Employee Severance Indemnity Fund - FGTS.
• They must maintain the regular ledger bookkeeping that records the revenues and expenses, as well as the gratuitous application separately, in accordance with the rules that emanate from the Federal Accounting Board.

• They must turn in the ledger and financial statements, duly audited by an independent auditor, legally licensed in Regional Accounting Boards, when the gross revenues earned surpass the limit established by Complementary Law No. 123 of December 14 of 2006.

Attention:

1. The entity may exercise its right to CSLL immunity from the publication date of certificate concession, given that the aforementioned requirements are met.
2. Once it is confirmed that the entity has failed to meet the requirements, Brazilian Federal Revenue Service inspectors will transcribe the writ of infraction related to the corresponding period and report the facts that prove the non-compliance to such requirements for the enjoyment of immunity.
3. The right to CSLL immunity is automatically suspended during the period when the non-compliance to the requirements for immunity is evidenced. The corresponding entry must have the date of the violation that justified it as its starting condition.
4. Non-profit entities discussed by item I of art. 12 of Decree No. 3,048 of May 6 of 1999, which do not meet the conditions for immunity, must determine the basis for calculation and the CSLL owed in the terms of the business and tax laws in effect. 

Exempt Legal Entity

      Philanthropic, entertainment, cultural and scientific institutions, as well as civil associations that render the services for which they were established, making them available to the group of people to which they are targeted, not-for-profit, are regarded as income tax exempt (Law No. 9,532 of 1997).

2. Savings and loan associations are exempt from income tax, but are required to pay social security on net profit.
3. Entities subject to their own ledger planning must calculate the CSLL in accordance with this planning.

The income tax exemption does not encompass revenues and capital gains earned in fixed revenue or variable revenue financial investments, and the capital interests distributed.

To benefit from the exemption, the aforesaid institutions are required to meet the following requirements:

1. They must not pay, by any means, their directors for the services rendered.
2. They must apply their resources fully to the maintenance and development of their social objectives.
3. They must maintain a complete bookkeeping of their revenues and expenses in books vested with the formal procedures that ensure their respective accuracy.
4. They must keep in good order, until any actions that pertain them have expired, the documents that prove the origin of their revenues and the incurring of their expenses, and the execution of any other actions or operations that may change their equity status.
5. They must hand in, annually, the DIPJ, in compliance with the relevant act of the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service.

 Philanthropic, entertainment, cultural and scientific institutions must ensure the transfer of their equity to another institution that meets the conditions for exemption, in case of incorporation, merger, split-off or termination of their activities, or to a public body.
