FAQ
Do real estate registry offices accept documents signed via gov.br in person at the counter?
Paper-printed documents containing only the visual representation of a gov.br signature are not accepted at real estate registry counters without prior notary materialization. The electronic signature resides in the native digital file, and its validity depends on the PDF file submitted to the verifier.
How does the registry office identify whether a gov.br signature is Silver or Gold level without the person logging in?
The notary public office or real estate registry uses the ITI Compliance Verifier or the Federal Government validation portal. The system inspects the digital certificate embedded in the PDF file without requiring user login or access credentials.
What is the procedure for authentic signature verification in the digital environment?
The procedure requires issuing a free e-Notariado digital certificate, scheduling a videoconferencing session with the notary public office, and signing the document on the official e-Notariado platform.
