In Brazil, from 1953 began the transfer of Oil royalties to States and Municipalities that are producers of such resource or that are related to the producing regions. The state of Sergipe is one of the leading names for national oil production. In addition, because of their location, all their municipalities receive some share from royalties. Thus, the objective of the study was to verify, through correspondence analysis, the relationship between the profile of the municipalities of the state of Sergipe and the receipt of funds through oil royalties. The municipal profile has characteristics such as: Expressiveness of tax revenue, Dependence on revenues from Union and State transfers and population size. It was found that the municipalities of Sergipe have a certain dependence on resources from oil royalties and this is even more evident in those with smaller population and lower capacity to collect their own. Therefore, it is necessary to encourage the studied regions to seek self-financing of their activities so that they become more autonomous.
