Hello, Dr. Vinícius,

thank you very much for the content, it's very helpful for us Brazilians who live abroad and don't understand much about permanent departure.
I've lived in Germany for 15 years and in Brazil I was a university student and never had a job. I left when I was 19 and I still live abroad today. I can prove that I've been living here for 15 years (I'm even registered with the embassy and have voting papers for the last 3 presidential elections). I have never declared my departure from Brazil (this information is very rarely disclosed, even at the embassy), I don't own any real estate (either in Brazil or abroad), I don't have a bank account in Brazil and I don't have any inheritance or fixed income (in Brazil or abroad). I have paid all the taxes required by Germany in my last few years of employment.
I'd like to move back to Brazil (for the company I work for) and I'd like to know: is there any risk of them wanting to tax me retroactively, even if I can prove, even through the Embassy, that I haven't been a resident for the last 15 years? I know that there is a document at the Embassy, used for removals, where they prove people's residence abroad in order to be exempt from the tax on removals. Could this document be used?
Thank you very much for your work and I wish you a good day.

I forgot to mention: on the Receita website, my CPF registration appears as "Regular".
