Portuguese Translation Considerations
When translating Portuguese documents, our translators pay attention to several language-specific factors:
Always confirm whether documents are in Brazilian Portuguese or European Portuguese, as vocabulary, spelling, and formatting conventions differ substantially.
Brazilian documents use CPF (Cadastro de Pessoas F\xc3\xadsicas) as the primary identification number, while Portuguese documents use NIF (N\xc3\xbamero de Identifica\xc3\xa7\xc3\xa3o Fiscal).
Portuguese from East Timor may incorporate Tetum loanwords and follow older orthographic conventions; check the country of origin carefully.
Portuguese uses the Latin alphabet with diacritics including acute accent, grave accent, circumflex, tilde, and cedilla. Characters such as \xc3\xa3, \xc3\xb5, \xc3\xa7, \xc3\xa1, \xc3\xa9, \xc3\xad, \xc3\xb3, \xc3\xba, \xc3\xa2, \xc3\xaa, and \xc3\xb4 are essential. Standard Unicode Latin-1 Supplement covers all Portuguese characters.
