About this calculator
This calculator helps investors determine the regressive Income Tax rate applicable to investment funds in Brazil. The IR on funds follows a regressive table that reduces as the investment period lengthens: the longer the money stays invested, the lower the rate. The rates are: 22.5% for up to 180 days, 20% from 181 to 360 days, 17.5% from 361 to 720 days, and 15% for over 720 days. Simply enter the number of days to get the correct rate.
The operation is simple: enter the number of days the investment has been held. The calculator compares the period with the regressive table intervals and returns the corresponding rate. For example, an investment of 300 days falls into the 181 to 360 days bracket, resulting in a 20% rate. This tool is useful for tax planning, helping to decide the optimal redemption time to pay less tax.
Use this calculator when you need to simulate the impact of IR on the redemption of investment funds, such as fixed income, multi-market, or equity funds. It is especially useful for comparing different periods and choosing the most efficient strategy. Remember that IR is withheld at source at redemption, and this calculator provides only the rate, not the exact tax amount, which depends on the profit obtained.
Caveats: the regressive table applies only to long-term funds (e.g., fixed income and multi-market funds). Short-term funds have a different taxation (flat rate of 22.5% regardless of period). Also, the period considered is for each individual investment, not the fund as a whole. Always check the fund type and specific rules of your investment.
Frequently asked questions
How is the period calculated for the regressive table?
The period is counted in calendar days between the investment date and the redemption date of each share. The calculator uses this period to determine the rate.
Does this calculator work for any type of fund?
No. It is valid for long-term funds (fixed income, multi-market, etc.). Short-term funds have a flat rate of 22.5% regardless of the period.
Is the calculated IR amount the final tax to pay?
No. The calculator provides only the rate. The tax due is the rate applied to the investment income (profit) at redemption.
Can I use it to calculate IR for equity funds?
Yes, as long as the equity fund is classified as long-term. The regressive table applies to these funds normally.
What happens if I redeem before 180 days?
The rate will be 22.5%, the highest in the table. For periods shorter than 180 days, the rate is the same for all long-term funds.
