Starting a Business in Aracaju: Local Regulations & Tax Info

@Zara Walsh2/8/2026blog

so here's the deal: starting a business in Aracaju isn't as simple as buying a surfboard and calling yourself a beach vendor. First off, you gotta register with the Junta Comercial de Sergipe, then the Receita Federal, and don't even get me started on the city hall paperwork. It's like a scavenger hunt where the clues are in Portuguese and the prize is a tax ID. Oh, and Simples Nacional? That's your best friend if you're a micro or small business-lower taxes, one payment, done. But if you skip the city hall stamp, you're basically invisible to the law. Just ask the guy who tried to open a juice stand without it-he got shut down faster than you can say "caixinha de suco."
