A foreign document has no automatic effect in Brazil, and an act performed outside the country usually requires a step here to be valid. Two situations come up often: those who live in Glória D'Oeste and married, divorced or inherited abroad, and those who left Glória D'Oeste and need to resolve something that stayed in Brazil. CK Advogadas works on both.

The field of international law covers legal situations connected to Brazil and another country. See the most requested international law services in Glória D'Oeste, Mato Grosso.
A simple uncontested divorce, which only dissolves the marriage, goes directly to the Civil Registry where the marriage was transcribed or registered, by annotation governed by the National Code of Rules of the National Inspectorate of Justice. A contested divorce, and a qualified uncontested one that deals with custody, support or division of assets, still depends on recognition by the STJ. The judgment may be recognized in parts.
A marriage celebrated abroad is valid, but it only has full effect in Brazil after it is registered here. The usual sequence is registration at the Brazilian consulate of the country of celebration and then transcription of the certificate at the competent Civil Registry in Brazil. Without that transcription, the marriage does not appear on Brazilian certificates and cannot be annotated or dissolved in the country.
Assets located in Brazil are probated in Brazil. Art. 23, II, of the Code of Civil Procedure gives the Brazilian authority, to the exclusion of any other, jurisdiction over probate and division of assets located here, even if the deceased was a foreigner or domiciled abroad. Property in Glória D'Oeste owned by someone who died in another country is therefore not resolved by the foreign decision: it requires a Brazilian proceeding.
The alternative of divorcing in the country of residence has a consequence: the foreign judgment will later need to be annotated or recognized in Brazil to be valid here. Comparing both routes before starting avoids doing the same procedure twice, in two countries, with two costs.
An acknowledgment made abroad must be transcribed to have effect in Brazil. If there is no voluntary acknowledgment, a paternity suit is possible, and it proceeds even with the other party living abroad, through service by the appropriate route, including international legal cooperation mechanisms.
