Police Certificates Brazil

[Oasis 0]

My BF tried to get his Federal Police today and the lady at the station said he can just print it out on the computer.

Is this true ? I just need to know if someone has done this, sounds a little strange to me.

Thanks

Police Records

Certificates of Good Conduct (Atestados de Bons Antecedentes) related to possible violations of state law are available to persons 18 years of age and older from the Secretaria de Seguranca Publica in each of Brazil's states. Atestados related to possible violations of federal law are available to persons 18 years of age and older from any station (Delegacia) of the National Police (Policia Federal). Criminal records in Brazil are expunged five years after any sentence has been served.

Because each state maintains a separate database of violations of state law, a prospective immigrant must obtain a separate record from the Secretaria de Seguranca Publica of each state in which he or she has resided within the past five years. Additionally, a prospective immigrant must obtain a record from the Policia Federal, since state police records do not include violations of federal law.

For addresses or telephone numbers of Secretarias de Seguranca Publica and Delegacias de Policia Federal an applicant may contact the immigrant visa unit of the U.S. Consulate General in Rio de Janeiro or access the consulate’s website at: www.embaixadaamericana.org.br. Federal Certificates are also available through the internet as are some State police certificates. If the applicant is residing outside Brazil, it is highly unlikely that he/she will get the Police certificate (only if he/she has someone with a power of attorney to apply on his/her behalf and if the applicant’s Brazilian ID card was issued by the specific state from which the certificate is being requested).

After get the certificate you need to validate it online, print it out and that's it. And it doesn't work just for São Paulo. In doubt, call the "Policia Federal" and they will tell you exactly the same.

Yes, it is true.

I just emailed the Consulate in RJ yesterday and they told me they accept it. Not only Federal but the civil (state) as well.

Here is the email I received from the Consulate (in Portuguese, sorry you can show him):

Bom dia,

Estou em processo de visto CR1 e gostaria de saber se os atestados de antecedentes criminais (policia civil e federal) podem ser emitidos pela internet, ja que os dois órgãos permitem essa consulta online.

Muito obrigada,
