The Supreme Federal Court (STF \u2014 Brazil\u2019s Supreme Federal Court, the country\u2019s constitutional court) has extended, through a preliminary injunction, the deadline for approving profits and dividends related to fiscal year 2025 to January 31, 2026, preserving the income tax exemption provided for in Law No. 15,270\/2025. The decision was issued by Justice Kassio Nunes Marques in Direct Actions of Unconstitutionality Nos. 7912 and 7914 (ADI \u2014 Direct Action of Unconstitutionality), filed by business\u2011sector associations. The reporting justice recognized the practical infeasibility of the deadline originally set by law, which required approvals by December 31, 2025.<\/p>\n

\n

What Changes in Practice<\/strong><\/p>\n

With the extension, companies now have additional time to: \u2022 complete year\u2011end closing for fiscal year 2025;
\n\u2022 prepare and, where applicable, audit financial statements;
\n\u2022 convene general shareholders\u2019 meetings or quotaholders\u2019 meetings;
\n\u2022 formally resolve on the distribution of profits and dividends.<\/p>\n

Approvals completed by January 31, 2026 remain covered by the IR exemption (IR \u2014 Individual Income Tax in Brazil). After that date, amounts may be taxed under the rules introduced by Law No. 15,270\/2025.<\/p>\n

Provisional Ruling and a Cautionary Outlook<\/strong><\/p>\n

Despite the operational relief, the measure is provisional and will be submitted to the STF Plenary in a virtual session scheduled for February 13\u201324, 2026. If the injunction is not confirmed, there could be significant tax impacts for distributions approved after December 31, 2025.<\/p>\n

Given this context, companies should exercise heightened care with corporate governance, proper formalization of corporate acts, and tax planning, especially considering the risk of future challenges by the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service (Receita Federal \u2014 Brazil\u2019s federal tax authority).<\/p>\n

Governance, Compliance, and Risk Mitigation<\/strong><\/p>\n

In light of residual legal uncertainty, a prudent posture is recommended, including: \u2022 approving resolutions as early as feasible;
\n\u2022 promptly filing minutes with the Boards of Trade (state commercial registries in Brazil);
\n\u2022 maintaining robust documentation of corporate decisions;
\n\u2022 reviewing internal compliance and risk\u2011management policies.<\/p>\n

The STF\u2019s decision once again underscores the importance of strategic legal action that aligns regulatory compliance, operational efficiency, and asset protection amid an evolving tax landscape.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
