Brazilian civil records are decentralised across cartórios, which means the first problem is not issuing the document but finding the registry office that holds the entry.
We carry out the search, request the full-text certificate (certidão em inteiro teor) where a file requires it, and arrange Hague apostille.
Frequently asked questions
- What if I don't know where my ancestor was born?
- That is the typical situation in nationality-by-descent files. We search across cartórios from whatever details are available.
