Confidential Submission of the Draft Registration Statement on Form F-1

Submitted May 3, 2021

CIK No. 0001793663

Ladies and Gentlemen:

On behalf of our client, VTEX (the “Company”), a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability, we have confidentially submitted a draft registration statement on Form F-1 (the “Draft Registration Statement”) relating to a proposed initial public offering (“IPO”) of the Company’s Class A common shares via EDGAR to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) for confidential review pursuant to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”).

The Company confirms that it is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act and its securities have not been previously sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”).

A formal filing of the Registration Statement will be made at a later date, which in no event will be later than 15 days before the Company commences its roadshow.

The review partner for this submission at the current audit firm, Pricewaterhouse Coopers Auditores Independentes, is Caren Macohin, who can be reached at +55 21 3232 1189 or caren.macohin@pwc.com.
