CK Advogadas works on both.

Until this step is taken, the person remains married under Brazilian law. This blocks a new marriage, complicates probate and keeps the marital status outdated in documents. For those who divorced abroad and have the marriage registered in Ibaiti, regularization starts with reading the foreign judgment, which defines whether the case is for the registry office or the STJ.
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.
Complementary Law 227/2026 filled the gap identified by the Supreme Federal Court in Theme 825 and defined which state is competent to levy ITCMD (inheritance and gift tax) in situations with an element abroad. In the inheritance of a deceased person domiciled abroad, the tax belongs to the state where the heir is domiciled; in a gift coming from abroad, to the state of the recipient. Collection on these terms still depends on state law and the tax anteriority rule.
An open probate, a property to sell, a divorce to formalize, a record to correct and an account to regularize are pending matters that are often left behind when moving abroad. None of them requires physical presence. A power of attorney executed at a Brazilian consulate, or made abroad and apostilled, allows representation before registry offices, public bodies and court proceedings.
Those who married in Brazil and live abroad can divorce here without coming back. If there is agreement, a public deed at a notary office is possible, with representation by an attorney-in-fact appointed by consular or apostilled instrument. With minor or incapacitated children, the deed requires custody, visitation and support to have already been defined in court. If there is a dispute or these issues are open, the route is judicial, with video hearings when applicable.
