Practice Areas

Marcelo Simão Solicitors has a team dedicated to the Immigration area, working all subjects involving Immigration and Emigration.

Marcelo Simão Solicitors’ office located in Brasilia plays a fundamental role in making the processes both efficient and speedy, since the majority of immigration authorities are located in this city.

The offices in Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Goiania work in partnership with Brasilia and start up the procedures directly with the leading immigration authorities, offering international quality and as great agility as possible.

The team acts in the following manner:


  • Overall guidance for personal working Visa;
  • Assistance concerning all the corporate documentation required to obtain working visas;
  • Assistance in the preparation of specific contracts, which may or may not require registration at the National Institute of Industrial Property;
  • Assistance to expats and companies in the labor area, with a view to complying with the Brazilian legislation, in both Immigration and Emigration; and
  • Assistance to expats with their registration at the Federal Police, and in obtaining the documentation necessary to open bank accounts and work in Brazil.

The paramount aim of Marcelo Simão Solicitors is to have foreigners who intend to work in Brazil legalized and comfortable, obtaining the proper documentation for that.
