What is the INSS Debt Clearance Certificate (CND)?
CND INSS is a document that, as the name suggests, proves that there are no financial or procedural pending issues for individuals or companies with the INSS. It is issued when there are no pending issues, but when there is, the taxpayer’s name is associated with the INSS Active Debt database list. In this case, the CND is not issued, but the CPD-EN (Positive Certificate of Debts with Effect of Negatives).
