Starting from the 2015 calendar year, all immune or tax-exempt legal entities are required to submit the ECF (Tax Accounting Ledger).
It is not possible to transmit two or more ECF files in the event of a change of accountant or a change in the Chart of Accounts during the period. The ECF must be transmitted as a single file, unless one of the special situations specified in Record 0000 occurs. If the entity needs to recover data from the ECD, both transmitted ECD files must be recovered (one for each accountant or one for each chart of accounts). However, for the ECF to correctly retrieve the data, the ending balances of the accounts in the first file (first accountant or first chart of accounts) must match the opening balances of those same accounts in the second file (second accountant or second chart of accounts). If these balances do not match, the ECF will only recover data from the second file. Any necessary adjustments must then be made directly within the ECF or in the ECD via a Replacement filing.
To correct the ECF, field 12 of Record 0000 (0000.RETIFICADORA) must be set to “S” (Amended ECF). The procedure for correction is as follows:
A transformation is not considered an event that interrupts the period for tax calculation purposes. Therefore, the options “Resulting from Transformation” (Code 3 of 0000.IND_SIT_INI_PER) and “Transformation” (Code 7 of 0000 SIT_ESPECIAL) have been removed from record 0000. In cases of transformation during the period (for example: when a company changes from an LLC to a corporation), the ECF must be submitted as a single file covering the entire period. Thus, if there was no special event and no new obligation at the beginning of the period, the following fields 0000.IND_SIT_INI_PER e 0000.SIT_ESPECIAL should be filled in as indicated:
0000.IND_SIT_INI_PER: 0 – Regular (Beginning on the first day of the year).
0000.SIT_ESPECIAL: 0 – Normal (No occurrence of a special situation or event).
The ECF must retrieve the ECD files related to the transformation (for companies required to submit the ECD), since in the ECD, in the case of a transformation, two separate files are transmitted.
The registration of accumulated tax losses from previous periods must be made in record M010 as follows:
The record of accumulated negative taxes bases from previous periods must be made in record M010 as follows:
Special events (spin-offs, mergers, acquisitions, etc.) occurring in 2014 must be reported via the Corporate Economic-Fiscal Information Declaration (DIPJ). The Tax Accounting Bookkeeping (ECF) shall only be used for transmitting special situations from 2015 onwards.
It should be noted that for Investment Partnerships (SCP) dissolved during 2014, there was no requirement to file the DIPJ for the SCP, nor is there a requirement to file the ECF. Only SCPs existing as of 12/31/2014 must submit the ECF for the 2014 calendar year.
Starting from the 2015 calendar year, all SCPs must submit the ECF, including those dissolved during the bookkeeping year.
According to Article 6 of Normative Instruction RFB No. 1,422, dated December 19, 2013, failure to submit the ECF by taxpayers that determine Corporate Income Tax (IRPJ) under the Actual Profit regime, within the deadlines established in Article 3, or submission of the ECF with errors or omissions, will result in the application of the penalties provided for in Article 8‑A of Decree‑Law No. 1,598 of December 26, 1977, as amended by Law No. 12,973 of May 13, 2014.
When applying the penalty mentioned above, if there is no net income before Income Tax and Social Contribution in the reporting period covered by the bookkeeping, the last reported net income before Income Tax and Social Contribution must be used, updated by the reference rate of the Special System for Settlement and Custody (Selic), up to the closing date of the bookkeeping period.
Failure to submit the ECF by taxpayers that determine Corporate Income Tax under any taxation method other than the Taxable Profit regime, within the deadlines established in Article 3, or submission of the ECF with errors or omissions, will result in the application of the penalties provided for in Article 57 of Provisional Measure No. 2,158‑35 of August 24, 2001.
The revenue codes for the penalties are:
3624/2 – Penalty for Late Submission of the ECF – Other Legal Entities
3624/3 – Penalty for Late Submission of the ECF – Actual Profit Legal Entities
The deadline was established by Article 3 of Normative Instruction No. 1,420/2013, reproduced below:

Paragraph 4. In cases of extinction, partial split-off, total split-off, merger or incorporation occurring from January to May of the calendar year, the deadline referred to in paragraph 2 shall be the last business day of June of that year, the same deadline as the ECF for normal situations related to the previous calendar year.
