Promoting Literacy
Reading and Culture to Transform Literacy in Brazil’s Public Schools

What is income tax allocation?
The income tax allocation program allows you to choose where a portion of the amount you would otherwise pay to the Internal Revenue Service goes.
Under the Rouanet Law, individual taxpayers who file a full tax return may allocate up to 6% of their income tax liability (provided the allocation is made by December 31).
Companies taxed under the Real Profit regime, on the other hand, can allocate up to 4% of their income tax liability throughout the year directly to approved cultural projects.
