What to know for Brazil

Weddings, child recognitions, property: Brazil accepts the apostille and requires sworn translations (tradutor juramentado) locally — but the Swiss apostille on the source document remains the indispensable first step we handle here.

Brazilian cartórios want recent, legible documents: we obtain the fresh certificate, apostille it, and advise on the hand-off to the local sworn translation.

Frequently asked questions

Is the apostille really enough for Brazil?
Yes: Brazil is a party to the Hague Convention — the Swiss apostille is recognised without further legalisation. The usual local requirements remain: a recent document and, often, a certified translation.
Do I need a translation?
Usually yes, in the official language of the receiving authority. We produce recognised certified translations — send us the instruction you received and we adapt.
How long does it take overall?
About 3–5 business days for retrieval and apostille, plus translation if required and postal transit. The online quote shows the precise timeline.
Can you send the document directly to Brazil?
Yes — tracked or express international mail, to your address, your representative or the receiving authority.
