Suarez will miss 13 Liverpool games and any transfer negotiations will not be affected by the ban but would obviously complicate matters, and has been fined £65,000.
The striker's sponsors adidas are holding emergency talks over their stance.
Uruguay are sure to appeal the severity of the sentence but Suarez will definitely miss tomorrow's last 16 game against Columbia at the Maracana Stadium.
Swiss Claudio Sulser, chairman of the independent disciplinary committee, said: 'Such behaviour cannot be tolerated on any football pitch, and in particularly not at a FIFA World Cup when the eyes of millions of people are on the stars on the field.
'The Disciplinary Committee took into account all the factors of the case and the degree of Mr Suarez's  guilt in accordance  with the relevant provisions of the code.

'The decision comes into affect as soon as it is communicated.' This was done to the player and the Uruguay FA shortly before FIFA announced the ban at their daily press briefing in the Maracana.
The terms of the sentence also prevent Suarez from entering any stadium in which Uruguay are playing or taking part in any football related activity.
This restriction is likely to make any Suarez transfer from Liverpool that more difficult  until the end of October.
The severity of the sentence came as something of a  shock this morning because South American football chiefs, including  Argentina President Julio Grondona, were said to have been lobbying hard for a lesser ban.
