How we checked this. We set this status by reading the platform's own terms of use and country eligibility, and the public register kept by the named regulator, then dated the result. Availability can change, so confirm directly with the platform and the regulator before acting. As of 26 June 2026.
As of 26 June 2026, LBank is available to residents of Brazil and is not listed among the countries it restricts. Brazil's Law 14.478, the legal framework for virtual assets, names the Banco Central do Brasil as the supervisor of virtual asset service providers, while the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários (CVM) handles crypto tokens that count as securities. LBank operates from outside Brazil, so confirm the current position with the regulator and the platform before you act.
Availability for Brazilian residents
As of 26 June 2026, LBank serves residents of Brazil. Brazil does not appear on LBank's published list of restricted countries, which names places such as the United States, Canada, Mainland China, and Iran. Brazilian users can reach the platform and complete identity verification.
Brazil's virtual asset framework comes from Law 14.478 of 2022, which set the rules for virtual asset service providers and named the Banco Central do Brasil as their supervisor. The central bank has been building out the authorisation and oversight of the sector, while the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários (CVM) regulates crypto assets that qualify as securities. LBank runs from outside Brazil within this evolving authorisation process, so its access could change as the central bank finalises its rules.
Access, identity checks, and products
LBank is a custodial exchange, which means it holds the assets in your account on your behalf rather than giving you the private keys. Brazilian users typically register with an email address, complete know your customer identity checks, and fund accounts using supported methods, which often rely on stablecoins or transfers from another platform.
Product availability depends on local rules and on the choices LBank makes for each market. Spot trading is the core service. Treat the regulatory standing as the main open question rather than the day to day mechanics, and read the platform's own country notices before depositing.
How crypto is taxed in Brazil
Brazil taxes crypto gains through the Receita Federal, the federal tax authority. Gains on disposals can be subject to income tax, and holdings on foreign platforms carry reporting duties (as of 26 June 2026).
Rates and thresholds depend on your circumstances and can change, so confirm the current treatment with a qualified Brazilian tax adviser. See the Brazil crypto tax page for a fuller explanation. This is general information, not tax advice.
Several platforms serve Brazil residents. Availability and products vary, so compare the exchanges that are genuinely available in Brazil before you choose.
Every availability status here is dated and checked against the named regulator's public register. We never place a link to a platform where it is not available.
