Getting a Brazilian virtual phone number for your business
São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasília: Brazil is the largest country in Latin America, and a +55 number shows your prospects a domestic call. Mind the language too: Brazilians speak Portuguese, not Spanish.
It is one of the most restrictive countries on the list. For a landline as for a mobile, the application relies on the CNPJ, the registration number of Brazilian companies, and on an address in Brazil. In practice, you need an entity registered in Brazil.
The documents themselves are simple: a commercial register extract, proof of a Brazilian address and the CNPJ number, entered with no document to attach.

What you need to know
The CNPJ
The Cadastro Nacional da Pessoa Jurídica, kept by the Receita Federal (the federal tax authority), identifies each company with 14 characters (00.000.000/0000-00). Since July 2026, new registrations may receive an alphanumeric CNPJ, still 14 characters long; existing CNPJs remain valid.
The ninth mobile digit
Anatel, the Brazilian telecoms regulator, added a 9 in front of every mobile number, state by state, between 2012 and 2016. A mobile number therefore has 9 digits after the area code, a landline 8.
Pick the right area code
The area code (DDD) is always 2 digits: 11 for São Paulo, 21 for Rio de Janeiro, 61 for Brasília. Choose the one for the city where your prospects are.
