What our reviewers know about your documents
Brazilian civil records (certidões de nascimento, casamento, óbito) are issued by cartórios de registro civil and follow a registration-book format with margin annotations (averbações) that record subsequent changes — Verdacert preserves these because they are essential to USCIS status verification. Brazilian and European Portuguese diverged orthographically before 1990 and partially reconverged after the Acordo Ortográfico; the certified translation notes the source variant. Dates use the day-month-year order and the Gregorian calendar.
Common source countries: Brazil, Portugal, Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, São Tomé and Príncipe, Guinea-Bissau, Timor-Leste.
