Overview
Apostila Brasil is a Brazilian document-services brand that specializes in Hague Apostille (Apostilamento de Haia) and sworn translation (Tradução Juramentada). It helps individuals and organizations make Brazilian official documents valid abroad, handling the process largely online. According to its own materials, the company was founded in 2017 in Curitiba and is part of Grupo Ferrara, a holding focused on document solutions. Its founder, Felipe Malucelli, is also associated with other ventures in the same group, including Ferrara Cidadania, AIUTA, eTraduções and Emita. The brand's core offer is the Hague Apostille, issued by notary offices authorized by Brazil's National Council of Justice (CNJ) and recognized in more than 120 signatory countries of the Hague Convention. Apostila Brasil states that the apostille can be applied to any official document issued in Brazil and is available in both physical and digital formats with the same validity. Alongside apostille, the company provides sworn translation through translators registered with Brazilian commercial boards (Juntas Comerciais), covering Portuguese into languages such as English, Italian, Spanish, German, French, Russian, Japanese and Mandarin. It highlights specialization in certificates, Italian citizenship processes, visas and exchange programs. The service model is built around a digital workflow: clients request an instant quote, contract and pay online (with card installment options), track each stage via WhatsApp notifications, and receive documents by email or through Correios (Brazilian postal service). The company says it serves clients across Brazil and abroad, with physical offices in Curitiba, São Paulo and Joinville, and reports having delivered more than 500,000 apostilles, over 100,000 translations and served more than 150,000 clients. It positions itself as a national reference in the sector and as a pioneer of online apostille services in Brazil. Apostila Brasil operates in the broader market for cross-border document legalization, a niche driven by emigration, dual citizenship applications, international study and work. Its bilingual-facing brand and fully online intake make it accessible to Brazilians living outside the country, a segment it explicitly names as important. The company is privately held within Grupo Ferrara and does not appear to be listed on a stock exchange.
History
Apostila Brasil was founded in 2017 in Curitiba, Brazil, with the purpose of simplifying Hague Apostille and sworn translation for Brazilians who needed to validate documents abroad. According to the company's own account, the service initially targeted clients within Brazil, but demand from Brazilians living outside the country quickly became apparent, prompting the brand to build a process that could be completed remotely. The company describes itself as a pioneer of online apostille in Brazil, allowing thousands of people to complete the entire process without leaving home. This online-first approach, combined with digital and physical delivery, became central to its identity. Over time, Apostila Brasil expanded its footprint, adding physical offices in Curitiba, São Paulo and Joinville while maintaining fully online customer service. Apostila Brasil is part of Grupo Ferrara, a holding specialized in document solutions. Its founder, Felipe Malucelli, is also identified as the founder of other group ventures such as Ferrara Cidadania, AIUTA, eTraduções and Emita. This group structure supports a portfolio of related services around citizenship, translation and document handling. By its own published figures, the company has delivered more than 500,000 apostilles, made available more than 100,000 translations, and served over 150,000 clients. It states that its apostilles are issued by notary offices authorized by the National Council of Justice (CNJ) and recognized in more than 120 signatory countries of the Hague Convention, and that its translations are produced by sworn translators registered with the Juntas Comerciais. The brand reports serving clients in more than 100 countries, reflecting its focus on the Brazilian diaspora and international document needs.
