b) the document already legalized by MOFA should also be legalized at the Consular Section of the Embassy of Brazil in Doha.

Important: in case the document is not written in Portuguese, its translation must be done in Brazil, by a public sworn translator, after the legalization of the document by the Consular Section of the Embassy of Brazil in Doha.

IMPORTANT: as stated by the Presidential Decree nº 8.742, published on 5/4/2016, documents issued by the Consular Section of the Embassy (power of attorney, civil registrations, statements) are valid in Brazil, and do not require further legalization by the Itamaraty. These documents may be signed by various officers in the Brazilian Foreign Service (deputy consuls, vice-consuls and charge d’affaires, among others), therefore not requiring the signature of the Chief of the Consular Post.
