Frequently asked questions
Can a certified copy be apostilled?
Yes. A copy certified by a Brazilian notary is a public document and can receive a Hague apostille.
Can you certify copies of foreign documents?
A Brazilian notary can certify a copy of any document presented in original, but this does not replace the apostille or legalization from the issuing country. We advise case by case.
