Ku1mana:
Please I need urgent answer to this
How do I legalise my document at Brazilian Embassy Lagos.
I have summited my application and all the document online and got code for recovery since January.

where do you need the legalized documents?

In Brasil

or
at Brazilian embassy in Nigeria for Visa application

Nigeria 2 Angola 1

Obinnau:


Someone please explain

Just make sure you legalize some of the document... Like Police Clearance Birth and Marriage certificate

Check the equirements for the visa you are applying for

scicey:


Type something like "Curso de portugues como lingua adicional Instituto federal de Sao Paulo". The course is not only available in Sao Paulo though. You can check for the one in the city you live in. Admission usually starts 3 months before the course start date.

I suggest you already start learning Portuguese on an app like DuoLingo before the course begins because the teacher would most likely teach in Portuguese even if they can speak English. However, if you are particular about English, then Sao Paulo has a course called "Portugues como lingua adicional para falantes de ingles."

Thanks
I will check it out

I actually applied for a PhD program in one of the private university at Sao Jose do Campus supported with a fully funded scholarship.
Documents presented:
1.Visa application form
2. Online form signed
3. Passport page
4. Bank Statement
5. Flight ticket including itinerary
5. Self Letter of introduction
6. Letter of introduction from my University which affirm that I am an academic staff of the University.
7. Accommodation/Hotel reservation.
8. Degree certificates which must be notorized
9. Visa Fees printed
8. Authorization message from the embassy
The last one which is very important was missing and I was told to submit it which is the police character certificate which must be notorized.
NB: My visa was approved for just five working days as at the time I submitted the police character certificate.

Congratulations

Just do a language program at an "Instituto Federal" instead of a private school to save cost. The program would most likely be virtual but you can use it to get a student visa because the learning hours is a lot in principle. However, classes are like 2-4 hours per week then you complete the other materials by taking the course online via the Moodle learning platform.

The school is for science and technology... I can't find where to apply for português language.
I will appreciate any further clarification from you.

Muito obrigado

I had to visit the Consulate. So we sorted the issue and they promised to work on d documents asap and send.

Ok

Luv2Boy4:
Just authentication/legalization is taking so many days. Some other embassies/Consulate only takes some few hours.

Any update from them?

Luv2Boy4:
Have you or anyone done legalization of documents there before? What was d experience like?

Yes.. that was year 2021... I think it took them like10 days or more.

I don't know how the system looks like at the moment. I am also planning to go through them soon.

Can you help me with the FedEx contact or location in Lagos?

Luv2Boy4:
Just authentication/legalization is taking so many days. Some other embassies/Consulate only takes some few hours.

Keep disturbing them with e-mail

Luv2Boy4:
I used FedEx. I only submitted the documents copy to the Consulate who said they will legalize and send it to Brazil themselves

Like how much did you pay FedEx for the self envelope?

Thanks

Luv2Boy4:
my legalization of documents with the Brazilian Consulate in Lagos is taking a long time. It has been with them since 6th June. Today is 14th June. They are yet to send it to Brazil. What do I do? Or how can you help. I have emailed the Consulate but no response. Can you help facilitate?

Give them like 10 working days.
What kind of courier did you use and can I have an idea of the amount?

Please anyone who applied for Brazilian visa recently (like 2 months ago) experiencing delays with response from the embassy after all documents physical submission?

You are not the only one... I know someone experiencing the same issue

adunnioladipupo:



But didn't received any from you here.

Is there an alternative means?

Check your spam

Whales001:


It now takes a minimum of 6 weeks for any visa types, if after 6weeks you did not hear anything from them you can now write them.

That's One "CON" of the Brazilian, there system is slow, anyone going through them must have alot of patience. And the good thing is; despite it takes alot of time to procure there visa, success rate is high in as much as you meet the necessary requirements.

Thanks for the info

What's next and when do I pay at the bank?

This is where to upload The printed receipt and the data page of the passport

Tope2580:


Well, I don't know if they have changed the process.

What I know is that you need to upload the printout( receipt) and your international passport, afterward, you will be sent a link to select date for your appointment.

The procedure has not changed.
