1What it is
To study, work or practise a regulated profession in Portugal or Spain, a Brazilian diploma usually needs recognition (Portugal) or homologation or equivalence (Spain).
The route depends on the country, the level of the degree and your goal. So we start with a four-question check that shows the likely route, and then build the application with you.
2Who can apply
- Graduates, technologists and postgraduates with a Brazilian diploma
- Anyone who will practise a regulated profession (health, engineering, law, teaching…)
- Anyone who needs the diploma recognised for public exams, jobs or a master’s
3Documents you need
- Diploma and transcript, with the Hague Apostille
- Course syllabi, when required
- ID document
- Official translation, when the destination country requires it (usually in Spain)

5Timeframe · How much it costs
Offices in Portugal and Spain set their own timeframes, which vary a lot by type of recognition. We share the current estimate in the review.
You get our quote before any work starts. Official fees, registry charges and translations, when needed, are charged separately according to each office’s tables.
Portugal: DGES or a higher-education institution, plus the professional body when the profession is regulated. Spain: the ministry responsible for homologation or equivalence.
Academic recognition alone may not be enough to practise a regulated profession. The check shows when you also need to register with the professional body.
