Provisional Naturalization

Provisional naturalization provides the temporary status of legal residence, permitting the person to live in the country while he or she is complying with the requirements to obtain permanent citizenship in the long run. During the provisional period, the resident must meet the specific conditions to progress towards permanent naturalization.

‍

Provisional naturalization is intended for foreigners who are minors and began permanent residence in Brazil before the age of 10.

"Permanent residence: You must provide a permanent resident visa valid for an indefinite timeframe since before you were 10.
Documents: You must supply documents that prove your permanent and continuous residence in the country.
Formal application: Formal application for provisional naturalization must be made by the legal representative of the young person."

It may take 1 to 2 years, after analysis by the Federal Police and the Ministry of Justice and Public Safety, depending on the efficiency of the immigration system and the documents you have supplied.
