## Basis
- [Law No. 6.404/1976, compiled (Planalto, in Portuguese)](https://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/leis/l6404compilada.htm): Article 98 establishes the obligation and the 30-day deadline for publishing the company's constituent acts after their filing with the business registry.

## How it applies
The duty to publish the constituent acts falls on the company's administrators. The 30-day deadline is counted from the date the documents related to the company's incorporation were filed with the competent business registry. Publication must be made in the official gazette of the company's headquarters location. Legislation further requires that a copy of this official gazette be subsequently filed with the business registry. The initial administrators have joint and several liability for losses resulting from delays in fulfilling these formalities.

## Limits
- This rule is limited to the incorporation formalities of the company provided in the Corporations Law.
- This card does not cover deadlines for other corporate publications or routine acts that are not the initial constituent acts.
- Administrators' liability for delays in publication is verified before the company itself.
- Subsequent legislative amendments must be checked directly at the official Planalto source before any decision-making.
