Apostille or Legalization:

Check if the foreign document has a Hague Apostille or if it was legalized by the Brazilian Consulate in the country of origin.

Certified Translation:

Make sure that the document from abroad is translated into Portuguese by a certified translator in Brazil (Law 6015/73, art. 129).

If the document is written in two languages, one of which is Portuguese, the registrar may dispense with the translation.

Registration at the Notary Office:

After translation and apostolation/legalization, the document must be registered with the Notary Office.
