If you want to get married in Brazil and want to indicate that you are divorced, I realize it is a much more difficult process.
Has anyone on this board been married in Brazil AND followed the Brazilian immigration process indicating that they are single when they were indeed divorced and succeeded? The marriage part is straightforward, but I am worried about the Brazilian Immigration process finding out later.
Or has anyone gone through the process indicating that they are divorced and legalized the divorce documents by the Supreme Tribunal Federal in Brasilia? How long did it take and how much did the Brazilian attorney cost?

Did you read http://www.nomarriage.com/why_foreign_women_are_better.html ?
DM = You make a good point, but - there is always is a 'but', even mongering gets tiring when you live in Rio 24X7 which I do. I have a wonderful 30 year old beautful morena clara that looks like she is 24 with no kids that is crazy about me, works a normal job (sorry, but I just do not get this dating or marrying a GDP bit), with an awesome family that is very close, and old fashioned values (Contrary to what most believe not all Brazilian girls are "easy" - try the Ipanema or Leblon girls). This girl does not need to marry a gringo or need to live in the US (which we will not, we will continue to live in Brazil). When I asked her about living the USA she wasn't entirely too thrilled about it.....and why? Why would someone want to leave Rio? She has a million friends, a large family. I love the weekends of going to the beach together, riding a bike in Lagoa, going to Barra Downtown shopping, etc, all that good stuff! I have even started surfing lessons (no laughing, please).... yes, there is more to Rio then just 'Help'
But I can still sneak away when I want....and I do! Just like many Brazilians do in the afternoon and early evening!
I have a very good Columbian friend who has taught me alot....he is happily married for many years, with two kids....but he gets his little action on the side here and there. The key is to keep this to professional GDP's, not non-pro's (this is one lesson I learned very late). His brother lives by the same moto and has been married happily for over a decade. Both of them have started a business in Columbia which gives them plenty of cover for business trips.
So my plan is to live in paradise (for me that is here in Rio) ...grow my business, marry a wonderful Brazilian woman, and have a little paid action here and there. They key here is pro's, not non-pro's that can fuck you up in the head.
After further research it really is not too difficult. I just need to have my divorce documents translated, then validated by the Brazilian embassy in the USA.
Life is great....a little more work, then heading down the street for a Chopp and sit a little with my honey on the beach when she gets home from work, before going home and ?!
When I get bored....which I eventually will, then I just have to take care of that boredom in my spare time.

I got my divorce validated with the Brazilian supreme court. But my marriage was with a Brazilian in Brazil, so most likely you will get by with a simple notarization by the local Brazilian consulate in your US city.
I paid US$ 1500 10 years ago, and I can probably dig up the data on the lawyer in Brasilia.
Most likely nowadays it will cost about triple, due to exchange rate and inflation.

How do you prove you are single or divorced? I do not know how Brazilians do it, but this is like proving the chicken or egg came first.
If you are a foriener, you have to prove you are single or divorced to get married.
The easiest thing to do is to go to the consulate and tell them you want a form that says you are single. The consulate will then give you a form “Certificado de ser Soltero”. You do not have to prove anything. The consulate just gives you the form. Of course if you are divorced and tell them that, thet will not give you the form.
Getting this form at consulate will let you get married in Brazil. Of course, the is only one of the hoops you have to go through, but it may be the biggest hoop.

By Gcl on Sunday, July 15, 2007 - 03:42 pm: Edit |
As you mentioned, you can get the form saying you are single, OR, get your divorce decree in the US cartoriorized in the Consulate for the region in which you were divorced, then you have to have the cartoriorized decree translated by an official translator.
I would choose option 1.
By Don Marco on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 06:25 am: Edit |
Lovingmartin, sounds all nice, easy, and blissful... until your married that is... give it time.
You seem pretty set on it, and I wish you the very best. Just remember to keep those eyes opened wide. I don't about getting married there and the law, but you can bet your life that I would have an iron clad prenup drawn up.
By Gcl on Monday, July 16, 2007 - 09:47 am: Edit |
Make sure the type of marriage you get there is the one where everything before and after your marriage remains your property. The only community property will be what accounts or things you buy in both of your names. It is called seperacao total de bems or something like that.

The concept of marriage is a tough one. If you've never been married, but become serious in a relationship...it is easy to think that the rest of your life with her will be wonderful. Rarily does this ever come true.
Rather than getting married I recommend you live with the woman for 7-years (if you make it that far). If you do make it to the 7-year point, and you still want to get married...then go right ahead...no questions asked. I have a buddy who dated the same woman for 13-years...he finally married her...they've been happily married now for about 10-years...it can happen.
But, if you reach the 7-year-point and discover, like most men do, that this is a good stepping-off point...by all means dump her ass and find a new woman to live with...no harm...no foul.
Oh, by the way...if you want kids...go ahead and go bareback...the costs will actually be cheaper than if you got married.
Keep repeating this atleast 10 times...then when you are about to die...marry a fat assed woman who is strong enough to carry you...also, be sure she can cook...and make sure she is willing to change your diaper. Then check-out when it feels right.

Ok, here is how you get married in Brazil as a Gringo:
Single, never married -
1) Get a copy of your birth certificate
2) Have it authenticated at your Brazilian embassy in the USA ($20 USD).
3) Have the birth certificate translated in Brazil by a certified translator. Very important, you cannot have it translated in the US
4) Bring your birth certificate, along with your certified translated copy, to a Cartoria de Titulos e Documentos to have it registered as a legal document in Brazil.
5) Go to the US embassy in Brazil and get a form called "declaracao do estado civil". You will simply have to indicate that you are a single and have the form notarized by the consulate. This happens the same day.
5) Then go to the Cartoria - You will need two witnesses and the completed marriage license application form. There is a 30 day waiting period.
If you are divorced, follow all of the above PLUS
1) Get a copy of your divorce document authenticated by the Brazil embassy in the US, then translated by a certified translator in Brazil, then registered in a Cartorio de Titulos.
2) Go to the US embassy in Brazil and get a form called "declaracao do estado civil". You will have to indicate that you are divorced and have the form notarized by the consulate. This happens the same day.
The cool thing about Brazil is that a pre-nup type of process is built into the marriage license process. At the time you file your marriage license, you have three options:
1) Merge all assets
2) Keep all assets separate before marriage, then combine all acquired assets after marriage
3) Keep everything separate before and after marriage.
Then there is a 30 day waiting period......
Next TBD ... Brazilian immigration process

There in lies the rub! They all are, sooner or later, X's. I swore my love in Costa Rica was different, I finally found the woman I could live with the rest of my life. We were very happy for years. I was content. I wasn't remotely interested in seeing other women she was all I needed. Beauty, chemistry, great sex, my best friend. We planned on getting married a few times, once it came as close as a few days! Looking back, I have to echo Elton John's song "someone saved my life tonight" If I was married with her now I would be willing to pay her a tidy sum to get my freedom. So now i want to marry one of the brasileras I met this trip...lol So you see how it goes?? Women are like buses theres another one coming every 5 minutes.

Sinbad does a great bit about marriage. He and his girl are so in love, she is the greatest, understanding, lets him hang with his buddies with no agravation ect.ect....
They go to the church and after he says "I DO"
(it even hurts to type those words) anyway, after his 'I do' and the reverend says I now pronounce you man and wife.. she turns to him and says..THINGS GONNA CHANGE AROUND HERE... and that is exactly what happens. ask yourself why they never say a man trapped her, Its always she trapped him. Think about 'being trapped!!!

By Lovingmarvin on Monday, August 27, 2007 - 03:42 pm: Edit |
Third time is - hopefully - a charm for me. Do I believe in forever, of course not.... but for now I am crazy about the girl I am with, I am in love, plus will have the long wanted benefit of marrying in Brazil which will give me my Resident papers with someone legitimate. She treats me good, gives me a reasonable amount of rope (maybe to hang myself again), is beautiful, works, and does not suck every last dollar out of me. What do I have to lose? Well, I thought about that too. If all goes well, we will live happily ever after..... if not, my assets prior to the marriage are mine (and I am not planning on acquiring anything new at this time in Brazil) and I have my resident card in Brazil. I am planning on living in Brazil, so I do not need to get resident papers in the USA. Most likely I will one day, if the marriage goes well...but for now I will wait. So....the only big problem could be her getting pregnant. That one is in my control - to some degree :-) I do prefer bareback!
Now, I was happily married the second time to a beautful Latin women - A Peruvian of Italian and Spanish decent. The problem is that I went crazy on my first trip to Rio and fell head over heels for someone. Marriage meant all the freedom I ever wanted - I traveled on "business" many places that allowed me to monger but always came home to a beautiful and loving wife that had no problems with sex. My ex wife and I had a great life...very active and fun, plus I had the mongering on the side! Perfect! I fucked it all up! My new girlfriend meant losing all of the above...including all freedom since she was 100X more jealous. So, marriage is not a bad experience for me.
My new girl trusts me....we will see how long that lasts :-)
I do have two friends that are "happily married" but occassionally monger when they get bored. That is indeed the best arrangement, at least from what I have seen.

What about LM trying www.eharmony.com.peru, www.eharmony.com.ar, or www.eharmony.com.br. If these do not work, maybe LM should try
www.larryparker.com
before his new girl friend does. Also, getting a divorce in a Brazilian court would be really bad for a Gringo, but some of them are really smart an know something that we don't.
Anyway, LM, is a grown man with much experience under his belt. I am sure he knows more then we do.

Why should I try those sites, like eharmony? Sorry, but that passed over my head. Either way, no need to try the websites (even so I have used them to add to my portfolio in the past). If you are outgoing, friendly, and know how to spin a tale just go to the regular places in Rio. But Portuguese will go a loooong way.
AS far as the comment that I was happily married with second wife, and had everything, what is going to be different this time? Who am fooling, myself, and my soon to be third wife?
The difference will be that I will stay away from regular girls and purely monger!! I just do not, in anyway, fall for working girls. Regular girls are more dangerous. I was happily married for 7 years, mongered on the side, and continued on with my normal life. Then I made the fatal mistake of falling in love with a civilian that I met in Rio. But then again, it was probably a combo - I fell in love with Rio along with the girl and lost my perpective.
Keeping a perspective - purely mongering for sex, not love, is the best way to go and staying married. This way you can have a relative normal life, with a little fun on the side.
By the way, one love has remained consistent....my love for Rio!!!!!!!!
By Lovingmarvin on Tuesday, August 28, 2007 - 01:06 pm: Edit |
Just a another side comment.... Not sure why everyone is losing their shirts with these girls. I am as cheap as ever...do not splurge in malls, expensive restaurants, etc.... and never had any problems holding onto a girl. Quite to the contrary, if you control your money and the girl, you will get alot more respect. Throwing money, cars, apartments, etc, etc, I just do not get it! I guess it boils down to buying love! As a matter of fact I have gotten so freakin' cheap that I have taken girls home from the Balcony Bar and Help in a bus and van. The end fuck remains the same. Taxi fare home, ha....bus fare is what I give them. Some girls just cannot believe it and have told me that I am the first gringo to have taken them home in a bus :-) If it is good enough for me, it is for them as well. Who am I trying to impress? Anyway, marriage can suck if you settle...the key is not to settle, not to buy someone with money, and keeping your eyes open at all times. I do not believe any stories anymore and certainly have gotten past the initial instinct that I had when I first came to Rio that I wanted to help the girls. Now I want more things in return - often more then I give. I am selfish and out for myself. That is the way it is! The more of a son of a bitch I become, the more girls I get and the more attached they become. Very strange, but true! As far as regular girls are concerned, they need to work and support the household if they live with me.
By Copperfieldkid on Tuesday, August 28, 2007 - 04:20 pm: Edit |
Lovingmarvin, you DEFINITLY answered my question.
"I fell in love with Rio along with the girl and lost my perpective"

I have been mongering for many-a-year and kept myself free from any emotional attachment until 6 yrs ago, in february of this year I rejoined the ranks of the free and happy monger.(no ref to THM)
But 2 trips to Rio in 4 months has me stupid again. i think these garotas put something in my drink. Although I have tossed in my 2 cents to LM, I fully understand why he feels this way. Any normal red blood hombre is susceptible to this virus.
Survival guide for Rio:
1. never repeat with the same girl
2. never ask about her family
3. never ask for a phone number
4. never ask for and e-mail addy
5. never take a picture together
6. never take them to dinner
7. never take them shopping
8. never bring anything from the states for them
have I left anything out?

LatinLover,
You are a wise man indeed. I complement you on your succinct list. I think you pretty much have it nailed. Having violated several points on that list (shame on me), I can attest to the unfortunate consequences that making a slip on #4 can have. Here's an excerpt from an email that I got over the weekend from Gleyce Kelly the little blonde bombshell 21 year old (I saw her CPF card and she was born in 1986) accounting student from Belo Horizonte -
"Gostoso é você seu safado!!!
Estou morrendo de saudades, louca para fazer amor com você novamente.
Aiiii, eu preciso muito, só de lembrar eu já me molho toda...
Beijos volta logo... "
How the hell are you supposed to ignore something like that????? Forget accounting, this girl needs to be in marketing! I'm gonna go take a cold shower now and repeat the mantra...... no email, no phone #, no repeat, no picture, no dinner......

With your perspectives now in check it should be great.

Jag would come and even write it up for you, Cat and I will gladly be ushers, Diversity the ring bearer, GCL will stand guard at the door as we don't need any Rif Raf. ..and the list goes on. Of course Blissman can write your invitations in a style known only to him, but guaranted memorable by anyone's standards.

Once you read that shit your done. You mindlessly go to the computer to search flights. you will start to justify why even though its only been a little more then 3 weeks sense your last trip to Rio you can swing another quick one.
I e/mailed mine today telling her I need a little more time here in the states to tend to my business but assuring her it would be very soon and I would be tasting her kiss again.
Her reply:
"OK my love, I will wait here in Rio De janero until the day you are here with me again. I will wait in sadness, missing your love and kisses, Your are my superman, my love, my life.

You know, that raises an interesting question. Is it considered bad CH etiquette to post naked photos of a girl that have been emailed to me as opposed to having taken the pics myself? How about a ruling?

Fiscal and Jag can have the "Praia das Putas" franchise; I'm taking the Terração franchise. Maybe Jag would prefer the VM franchise.
RJ-
I consulted colleagues in both journalism and computer science departments. All agree that once a puta has sent a photo anywhere electronically, she has made that photo a part of cyberspace and forfeited all privacy rights; hence, you are free to post any pics sent to you via electronic means. Photos sent via surface mail are treated differently, but since no puta has ever sent anything via surface mail, that's a non-issue. Remember: tell her that if she really loves you (i.e., wants your money when you return), she will show her love by sending you some really nasty pics to help you with your "tesão."

Your list nailed it. I have made all of those stupid mistakes. The Brasileiras are like drugs. It is easy to get addicted. I have learned some very important lessons. I had one whose nickname was Borboleta Rosa. Her snapper was awesome but she was counterfeit. I hope I never fall into one of those traps again. Guys, be careful, the women there are very good at this game of lust and love. Most are just trying to make a living, their attachent to gringos is very short. Once you leave town the next one parts her legs and she collects all she can. Trust me, I know.

[When] "you fall in love in Rio, you fall in love by yourself"
That's fu**ing priceless.
I'm gonna get that put on a T-shirt and parade it around Copacabana. Better still, I'm gonna wear it on my next trip to Moscow and go straight to the The Real McCoy or the Karma Bar. What a conversation starter. The Russians can't resist tragic love stories. That will get me some pussy in about 15 minutes and I probably won't even have to pay for it.
Oh and just for the record - I don't HAVE the naked photos of the little organ grinder (because of the braces on her teeth) yet. I'm still trying to cajole her to send some to me through witty emails and promises of return visits. Yeah, right - that's gonna work.

Quick update: Got married to my Brazilian honey on September 29th. We honeymooned in the US and are now back in Rio. Her tourist visa was very easy. Only a 5 minute interview, that's it. She is fantastic, no complaints (so far).
Now I am beginning the immigration process. Gathered all my docs in the US. Policia Federal from an immigration perspective is now located in the Rio Intl airport. Before we traveled picked up a list of docs needed, including an app. If all goes well I will have my temporary slip tomorrow that allows me to come and go to Brazil at will until my paperwork is processed.
So far married life is great. I loved all the attention she got in the US. Luckily she did not change after we got married and still gives me space to go out with my friends or do my thing. We will see how long that lasts.
Will be posting all the immigration advice & experience soon.

LM. I recall reading your findings about hitting the gringo-style Rio clubs just about every night of the week (I am thinking it was this year).
And now marriage?....(over/under on the Rio temptresses prevailing )
I think we all look forward to hearing this process and documenting it from a monger's viewpoint. It should be interesting.

Thank you all....
It certainly has been an adjustment from a 100mph single life to married life, but actually having a very active single and club life made my decision to marry easier. Why? In going out as much as I have, I have met many girls - some good, but many "bad girls", i.e. those that make out with several guys a night, one night stands, etc. Now add in 'Help' and all the other GDP places. This made me quite cynical over time.
I realized that it was very very easy to find a 'bad girl', or someone easy that just wants to play. This includes non-pro's who are looking for a sugar daddy, or are playing around on their boyfriends. I have seen it all! A good one, on the other hand, is much more difficult to find. Even if you meet one, all the stars and planets have to align for something to work out - best to take advantage when the opportunity presents itself.
When I met my girl I knew she was different and she has proven that over and over. While other girls eagerly solicited and accepted gifts, she did not. She is active, intelligent, and very motivated to work and save money. My wife cooks, cleans, and is there for me....regardless how "chato" I am. Without fail, she always looks at prices for everything and never hesitates to tell me "its too expensive, lets wait". On many occassions she has told me that a restaurant is too expensive and offered to cook at home instead. Nothing has changed after we got married.
So, in summary - The GDP's and non-pro bad girls will always be out there, always - as long as you have some money in your pocket. Meeting a 'good girl', someone who is on the same wave length is much more difficult. I figured I really had nothing to lose. This marriage will help me get established with a iife in Brazil without all the other distractions. It has allowed me to become more focused.
I will now have a permanent visa in Brazil, I am not married in the US, and if things work out - fantastic. If not (I am divorced, so I do not believe in forever anymore) then it does not, but in the end it will be fine.
I did get my temporary permanent visa slip yesterday from Policia Federal. Now I can stay here while the paperwork is being processed without regard to the typical 6 month, 90 day limit bullshit.
I think what made my wife a good fit for me is that I am the stronger and dominating personality, with her being in a more of the traditional role. She does not challenge me on everything nor does she restrict me like some others have tried to do in the past. We still have not fought about anything....maybe disagreed, but in a respectful way. With other's I have fought like cats & dogs, with a constant power struggle....this is - thankfully - not the case now! I cannot be with someone who restricts my ability move and breeth.....who needs to know where I am every 5 minutes.
Ultimately my goal is to live in Rio, like a Carioca. Married and a little side action here and there.....that's perfect - the Brazilian guy's way of life. If I want some uncomplicated variety in my sex life, slipping out to 4x4 every now and then is very easy. So.... those of you know who know me personally will still see me "out there" every now and then :-)
The "other action" will ALWAYS be there....just need a few $$$$ :-)
