What is a DFP file?

DFP files mostly belong to ZIP extractor / PADRE. DFP files store official financial and tax data for government reporting.
They come in two main forms:
  • Brazilian files formatted as financial statements that use a ZIP container. More details can be found at the Brazilian government site.
  • Spanish files that serve as tax return documents and are linked with the PADRE system. More information is available at the Spanish tax site.
    • FilExt.com tip: These files hold structured data—often in XML or plain text—and usually require a ZIP extractor or dedicated tax software to open.

    How to open a DFP file

    You need a suitable software like ZIP extractor / PADRE to open a DFP file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your DFP file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a DFP file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

    DFP file format:

    If you can determine the file format, the associated program can also be determined. Each file format has a unique extension and almost always a unique signature. For example, Microsoft Word documents have the extension .docx and the signature (usually the first 3 characters in this file) PK. Nonetheless, different programs can utilize the same file extension to represent distinct file formats. Double-clicking on the file often results in an error when opening. Exact knowledge of the format is therefore important in order to solve problems occurring in files. Below is our analysis of the DFP files:
