Frequently asked questions
What is an inteiro teor certificate?
It is a full copy of the registry entry, including all notes and annotations. It is required, for example, in Italian and Portuguese citizenship applications.
Can I request a Brazilian certificate from abroad?
Yes. We request it from the Brazilian registry and send it to you, translated and apostilled if you need.
What if I don't know which registry holds the record?
With a name, an approximate date and the city, we can usually locate the record. Sometimes a search across several registries is needed.
