Apostille for Brazil

Brazil not so long ago joined the Hague Convention of 1961, which establishes a simplified procedure for the legalization of official documents of foreign states for use on the territory of this country. If earlier it was necessary to undergo long-term consular legalization, since 2016, in order for Russian documents to be valid in Brazil, it is enough to put an Apostille stamp in the competent state authorities.

What documents are apostilled

Legalized by affixing an Apostille stamp for use in Brazil, you can use the following official documents: 

  • any official papers issued by public authorities on the territory of Russia;
  • documents issued and signed by officials of courts and law enforcement agencies;
  • documents issued by notaries or copies of documents certified by them in the manner prescribed by law;
  • references and certificates that confirm the information available in the civil registration authorities;
  • certificates, diplomas and other educational documents that confirm education, academic degree, awards, and assignment of academic honors;
  • any certificates that have a unified form (written on the official letterhead), which confirm certain information.

It is important to note that it is not always possible to affix an Apostille to the original document. In some cases, it is issued only for a certified notarized copy or a notarized translation.

Where and how the Apostille is affixed

There are not so many Russian authorized bodies in Russia which affix an Apostille. Consulates and embassies do not affix apostilles! Law enforcement documents are certified by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, notarial documents - by the Ministry of Justice, educational - by the Department of Education, documents of the civil registry office - by the archives of the registry offices.

To use Russian documents in Brazil, an Apostille stamp is not enough; an official translation into Portuguese is required. The translation can be done on the territory of Russia and certified by a notary. However, translations into Portuguese issued in Russia are not always accepted in Brazil. Most often, translation from Russian into Portuguese is carried out by sworn translators in Brazil.

Services for stamping an Apostille on documents

The Apostille procedure, despite its simplicity compared to consular legalization, can take a lot of time due to bureaucratic delays, the workload of state bodies, and other reasons. In addition, it is possible to get a refusal to Apostille for formal reasons specified in the legislation.
