    Length of time for transfer of property

    I have a client with a delay too. I went to SPU (marine) yesterday and they are on strike, apparently everywhere in Brazil and with no date to return working, so you could expect an extra delay because of that. In what stage of your paper work is at the marine? If you have the document called...

    Can foreigners legally own beach property in Brazil?

    Ok. Let me try to explain. As you probably know the article 205 has to be combined with art. 100, letter "a". Letter "a" says that any "aforamento" regime over the properties mentioned needs an authorization from those government sections listed. Article 205 says that a foreigner needs an...

    The only restriction for foreigners non resident buyng land in Brazil are the ones considered in National Security sites (for example next to a military base or on the borders of Brazil, as stated by Rob) and Rural Areas (not all of them). Going to the point, I have a non resident English client...

    Help - Contract Cancellation

    Hi Jamphi. I am a solicitor based in Natal and what I can say without knowing more information and checking the documentation, is that the Brazilian Consumer Act (Código de Defesa do Consumidor) doesn´t specify how much you are entitled to get back. But it does say that the amount the company...

    Are you sure about those ridiculous prices. Just as a coincidence, I have a friend going from Natal to London e another coming from London to Natal one on the 28th and the other on the 30th. There is a tiny diference in between them, but they are paying around £760. Make sure to try the oficial...

    Blindness and stupidity when investing in Brazil

    Considering that there is a judicial process and all the orders have been signed, the safest way is to ask your attorney to present a petition on the same process requesting to open a judicial´s account. But make sure that the power of attorney given to your lawyer doesn´t authorize her to touch...

    Opening a bank account

    1 - I think that what debzor quoted includes the salaries and its costs (taxes, bonus, insurance, etc),which could easily reach over R$ 700,00 per employee. R$ 232,50 is probably just the accountant fee, please tell me if I am wrong. They normaly charge a minimum salary to "look after" a...

    Opening a bank account

    As Frank said, by holding a HSBC bank account should be easier. But in Brazil just "Premier" customers are allowed to, Im not quite sure how it is in England. On the other hand, if you are prepared to buy a property in Brazil, you could open a company and open a bank account for the that. Once...
