An apostille can only be issued in the country where the document was issued. For a document from Brazil that means Brazil’s designated authority; no other country can apostille it. We coordinate the submission in Brazil, the notary reviews your application first, and the document is returned with the apostille – by courier or, where Brazil issues electronic apostilles, as a verified PDF.

Apostille in Brazil: questions
Under Article 6 of the Convention Brazil has designated: Pursuant to Article 6 of the Convention, the Government of the Federative Republic of Brazil states that, according to the applicable Brazilian legislation, the Judiciary is responsible for supervising and regulating notarial activities in Brazil. Therefore, legal, notarial and registration authorities will have competence to issue certificates by the Brazilian Government.. The notary reviews your application and we route the document to the right office.
In all Contracting States except Kosovo: an Article 12 objection is in force between them, so documents for these states need consular legalisation instead. Non-Convention countries (for example the UAE, Qatar, Egypt) always need legalisation.
