Why Apostille Documents for Brazil

If you need to use a UK document in Brazil for residency, study enrolment, employment or family law matters, it will need an Apostille certificate. Birth certificates, school letters, ACRO police certificates, academic documents and Powers of Attorney are the most commonly apostilled UK documents for Brazilian use.

Brazil is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, with the Convention having entered into force in 2016. Once your UK document has been apostilled by the FCDO, no further attestation at the Brazilian Consulate is needed for the document to be accepted by Brazilian authorities.

Usually, yes. Brazilian authorities often require a sworn translation (traducao juramentada) into Brazilian Portuguese, completed by a sworn translator registered with the relevant Brazilian state Junta Comercial. The translation is most often arranged inside Brazil.
