Choose the recognition that fits the document

Portuguese signature recognition is not one single format. The document and the capacity in which the person signs determine which form is appropriate.

What we handle

  • Identify the form of signature recognition the document requires.
  • Review or prepare the document before signing when drafting is part of the request.
  • Check identity and representative-capacity documents when special wording is needed.
  • Arrange the signing and certification in the required form.
  • Coordinate apostille, legalisation or translation for international use when needed.

What to send us

  • ·The document to be signed, preferably before you sign it unless we tell you otherwise.
  • ·The signer's identity document.
  • ·The name of the bank, registry, court, company or other recipient.
  • ·Any wording or certification requirement supplied by the recipient.
  • ·Company or representative documents if the person signs in a specific capacity.

Prepare remotely, attend only when the signing requires it

We can review the document and organise the appointment remotely. Simple signature recognition is completed in person. We confirm the exact signing requirements before the appointment so you know what to bring and whether anything else is needed.
