Apostille accepted.
Brazil has been a party to the Hague Apostille Convention since August 2016, so U.S. documents need an apostille instead of consular legalization.
We do not give immigration or legal advice.
Documents clients send to Brazil.

- Powers of attorney (procuração) for property and banking

Translation needs.
Brazilian offices usually need documents in Portuguese, and many ask for a sworn translation (tradução juramentada) by a translator registered in Brazil. We do not translate into Portuguese. Ask the receiving office which translation it accepts before you order one.

Brazil questions.
Do I need the Brazilian consulate to legalize my document?
No. Since August 2016 the apostille replaces consular legalization for Brazil.
Does my translation have to be done in Brazil?
Often, yes. Many Brazilian offices require a sworn translation by a translator registered in Brazil. Check with the receiving office before ordering a translation here.
