Flavio Bolsonaro's law office issues and cancels $1.5 million in invoices to Master‑linked firms

In April 2025 the law office of Senate pre‑candidate Flavio Bolsonaro (PL‑RJ) issued three R$ 500,000 invoices. Two were sent to Copenhagen Consultoria & Assessoria S.A., a company with a R$ 40 capital that has been identified as a conduit for about R$ 58 million of funds from the Banco Master scheme controlled by Daniel Vorcaro; both invoices were cancelled on the same day and two days later. A third invoice of the same amount was issued to Contábil Correa, whose director Rogério Lourenço Novo also sits on the board of Copenhagen; this invoice remains uncancelled.

The companies are linked to the “Master” fraud investigation being pursued by the Federal Police, which alleges money‑laundering and false‑invoice schemes. Bolsonaro’s office, of which he is the sole partner, denies any wrongdoing, stating the cancelled notes “never moved money” and that the work for Contábil Correa was a private, legal legal‑advice contract. In a video he said, “Eu fiz um trabalho para uma empresa, fui contratado para isso, prestei serviços advocatícios, tudo certo, relação completamente legal e privada.” The pattern of issuing, cancelling and re‑issuing invoices matches methods previously flagged in tax‑fraud investigations, raising questions about possible misuse of the senator’s professional activities in the context of his presidential campaign.
