Your Judgment Has Already Been Decided. Now Portugal Needs to Recognize It.
Divorce, child custody, asset division — if it was decided abroad, it has no legal standing in Portugal until it is recognized. We handle everything. From wherever you are.
Without recognition, your judgment simply does not exist in Portugal.
You got divorced in Brazil, the US, or any other country — but in Portugal, you are still legally married.
You cannot remarry in Portugal. You cannot update your civil status at the Registry. You cannot register the division of assets.
Child custody orders issued by a foreign court have no legal effect in Portuguese territory.
Every month that passes without resolving this is another month living in a legal situation that does not reflect your reality.
You have already done the hard part. We handle the rest.

What you need to know
How long does it take?
The average timeline is 2 to 4 months, depending on the court and the complexity. Mutual consent divorces tend to be faster.
Do I need to travel to Portugal?
No. The entire process is conducted 100% online, with a legal power of attorney. You do not need to leave your country.
Can any judgment be recognized?
Most can, as long as it meets Portuguese legal requirements. We verify whether your case is eligible before you invest anything.
What if I got divorced in Brazil?
Brazilian divorces are frequently recognized in Portugal. We are licensed in both countries and know the particularities of each legal system.
How much does it cost?
The price depends on the type of judgment and the complexity. Fill out the form and receive a detailed proposal by email — no surprises, no hidden costs.
Can I pay in installments?
Yes. Digital payments (Stripe) offer installment options automatically at checkout, including Klarna. Bank transfer (IBAN) payments are one-time with a special rate.
Are extrajudicial Brazilian divorces valid in Portugal?
It depends. Divorces finalized at a notary office (extrajudicial) can be recognized in Portugal, but the legal pathway differs from court-issued divorces. We analyze your case and guide you through the correct procedure.
What documents do I need to send?
The original judgment (with proof of finality), a certified Portuguese translation, the Hague Apostille, identification documents, and a power of attorney. We send you a personalized checklist after the first contact.
Can the court refuse to recognize my judgment?
In rare cases, yes — usually due to lack of valid service of process on the other party, violation of Portuguese public policy, or lack of jurisdiction by the original court. We verify all these points before filing.
Can I have child custody recognized together with the divorce?
Yes. If the foreign judgment addresses custody, child support, and property division in the same case, everything can be recognized at once by the Court of Appeal.
How do I track my case progress?
You receive email updates at every relevant stage. No need to check courts or worry about deadlines — we handle everything.
Do you accept judgments from non-EU countries?
Yes. We work with judgments from any country — Brazil, the US, Angola, Mozambique, the UK, Switzerland, Sweden, and many others. Each legal system has specific rules, and we know how to handle each one.
