Agência and conta, and the CPF on everything
A Brazilian account is identified by the agência — the branch number — and the conta with a check digit after a hyphen, and both are needed. The statement also carries the holder's CPF, which is the durable identifier across every Brazilian document.
We reproduce all three. A US office matching a statement to a passport uses the CPF, and it is the field most worth getting exactly right.
Pix, and what the transaction lines say
Brazilian statements are dominated by Pix transfers, each line showing a counterparty name and a key — a phone number, an email, a CPF or a random string — rather than an account.
A US reader sees a wall of transfers with no bank names. That is what Brazilian retail banking looks like, and we translate the line descriptions and explain the key type rather than leaving a column of strings.
The extrato, and the comprovante
An extrato is the account statement; a comprovante is a receipt for a single transaction, which Brazilians send routinely as proof of payment. They are different documents and a file of comprovantes is not a statement.
Banks also issue a declaração or balance letter on letterhead for formal purposes, which is what a consulate usually asks for alongside the extrato.
Digit grouping, and the currency
Brazilian numbers use a comma as the decimal separator and a point for thousands, so R$ 1.234,56 is one thousand two hundred thirty-four reais and fifty-six centavos.
A translation that carries the punctuation across unchanged into a US document is off by a factor of a thousand. We convert the notation and name the currency. See our Portuguese page.
Ordering, and what the certification covers
Upload the document, choose certified translation at $24.95 per page of up to 250 words, and it comes back typically within 24 hours as a PDF formatted to mirror the original, with a signed certificate of translation accuracy on letterhead. Marginal annotations are translated in place, in the margin, and every seal, stamp and registry endorsement is translated with the text. See how we translate and certified versus standard.
