*Information regarding signature authentication:
Requesting by legalisation (apostille) with the British competent authority
In case the Brazilian or foreign parent/legal guardian has not registered his/her signature or cannot come to the Consulate to do so, the signature on the travel authorisation form must be certified by a British solicitor or notary public.
The document must subsequently be legalised by the FCDO (get an apostille). After being legalised, the form is considered valid in Brazil and can be presented to the Federal Police; there is no need for additional procedures at Consulate.
