The CPF number (Cadastro de Pessoas Físicas, [sepeˈɛfi]; Portuguese for "Natural Persons Register") is the Brazilian individual taxpayer registry identification. This number is attributed by the Brazilian Federal Revenue to Brazilians and resident aliens who, directly or indirectly, pay taxes in Brazil.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, all requests for CPF numbers from new foreign residents are being taken virtually. It is an 11-digit number in the format 000.000.000-00.
