Hague Apostille From Documents in Brazil

Apostille your Brazilian documents without leaving home. Originals or digitally signed with gov.br. E-apostille or physical — shipped worldwide via DHL.

What is the Hague Apostille?

The Hague Apostille is an international certification that authenticates the origin of Brazilian public documents so they have legal validity in over 120 countries that are signatories to the Hague Convention. It is a certificate issued by authorized notary offices that proves the authenticity of the signature, the capacity of the signatory, and the identity of the seal or stamp on the document.

For anyone needing to use Brazilian documents abroad, the apostille is essential to validate birth certificates, marriage certificates, diplomas, school transcripts, powers of attorney, corporate documents, and much more before foreign authorities.
