Foreign Documents Ready for Use in Brazil​

We coordinate the certified translation of foreign documents required for the establishment, registration, and operation of companies in Brazil, paying close attention to the formal requirements of each process.​

Certified translations are performed by a licensed professional and enable documents issued in other languages to be submitted to authorities, government agencies, financial institutions, notary offices, and other Brazilian entities, when required.

What It Solves

Foreign documents that must be submitted in Portuguese for legal proceedings in Brazil

Inconsistencies between foreign documents and their use before Brazilian authorities

Lack of coordination between translation, authentication, apostille, and legalization

Re-work and delays caused by incomplete or inadequate documentation

Why It Matters

Documents are an essential part of a foreign company’s structure in Brazil. Inadequate translations or incomplete documentation can lead to additional requirements, delays, and rework in corporate, banking, regulatory, and administrative processes.​

With Global Bridge, certified translation is integrated into the company’s operational structure, with local coordination and attention to the documentation requirements applicable to each stage.

We coordinate the translation of corporate documents, powers of attorney, contracts, certificates, personal documents, and other documents necessary for the transaction;​

We integrate the translation with authentication, apostille, or consular legalization procedures, when applicable; ​

We monitor the documentation to ensure consistency between the foreign documents and their use in Brazil;​

We centralize communication and process monitoring, reducing the number of steps and points of contact for the foreign company.
