FAQ
Can a foreigner own property in Brazil?
Yes, foreigners can own property in Brazil with some restrictions — particularly for rural land, border areas, and agricultural properties. Urban real estate is generally open to foreign ownership. We handle the entire process: due diligence on the property title, verifying no outstanding debts or liens, drafting the purchase agreement, and registering the deed. We also assist with obtaining a Brazilian CPF (tax ID), which is required for any property transaction.
How do I get a visa or residency in Brazil?
Brazil offers several visa categories: work visas, investor visas, retirement visas, digital nomad visas, and family reunion visas. The process involves submitting documents to the Brazilian consulate in your home country first, then registering with the Federal Police upon arrival. We handle the entire process — from identifying the right visa category for your situation to preparing and submitting all documentation.
Do I need to be in Brazil to hire you?
No. Most legal procedures can be completed remotely — we use digital signatures, secure document exchange platforms, and video conferencing for consultations. For court cases, we can represent you through a power of attorney signed electronically or at a Brazilian consulate in your country. We serve clients from the United States, Europe, Asia, and worldwide.
What are your fees and how do payments work?
Our fees depend on the type and complexity of your case. We offer transparent pricing with detailed fee estimates before starting any work. For most services, we charge fixed fees so you know the total cost upfront. Payments can be made via bank transfer, Wise, PayPal, or cryptocurrency. Initial consultation is free — contact us to discuss your case and get a personalized quote.
