Cartório for dummies

what is the cartório?


the cartório is like the public notary here in brazil. get to know it. you'll need it at some point or another.


what can i do here?


much like a public notary, here you can make documents official. things like rental agreements, certain types of declarations, etc.


now, there are several different types of cartórios in brazil. before you go to one to get something notarized make sure that it does the type of documents that you are intending to submit.


how do i use it?


you will need to register your signature. this cost around 20 reais and you will be registered at ONLY that cartório. to register your signature you will need to provide:

  • ID (Passport works)
  • CPF
  • a working thumb (thumbprints)
once you have registered your signature you will be able to certify your signature on any documents that you need.
