Anyone not currently living in Brazil can request a CPF using Easy CPF, including:

• Foreigners with no Brazilian nationality
• Brazilians living abroad
• Children, teenagers, and adults
• People without a Brazilian ID or without a birth certificate available

Many people ask us: “Do I need a birth certificate?” — and the answer is: in most cases, no.

Usually, you only need:

• Passport (photo page and selfie)
• Additional document (only if the Brazilian government requires it)

The birth certificate is only required in rare situations when Receita Federal asks for extra verification.

The average processing time is:

3 to 10 business days, depending on the government’s analysis and weekly demand.

We will always update you by email as soon as there is movement in your case.

As soon as we process your application:

• We send you an email confirming that your request is officially with the Brazilian Government.
• You will also receive notifications when it is approved, when there are pending documents, or when it is completed.

Yes. We use secure systems, never ask for unnecessary information, and follow all requirements from Receita Federal.

You will always receive a valid submission protocol number.

The price may vary depending on:

• Type of request (new CPF, update, correction)
• Your country of residence

All prices are displayed during checkout before payment.

With an active CPF, any foreigner can create a gov.br account and access:

• Judiciary services

The CPF is a universal identification number, allowing you to:

• Open a bank account
• Buy property
• Invest in Brazil
• Sign contracts
• Apply for a driver’s license (in some cases)
• Access government services

No.
Easy CPF was created specifically so people living abroad can apply without traveling, visiting a consulate, or dealing with Brazilian bureaucracy.

This may happen in specific cases.
If it does:

• We will email you explaining exactly what was requested
• We will help you provide the correct document
• And we will continue monitoring your case until it is approved

We do not issue the CPF.
The CPF is issued only by the Brazilian Federal Revenue (Receita Federal).

Our role is to simplify the process, review your documents, submit everything correctly, and follow up until completion.

As soon as Receita Federal approves your request:

• You will receive your CPF number by email.
• We will also send instructions on how to download your official digital receipt from the government’s website.

Yes.
You only need to provide:

• The child’s passport
• A document from the legal guardian

This is very common for families traveling, studying, or moving to Brazil.
