No. I was married to a Brazilian (in Brazil), and divorced in Canada.

Brazil will not recognize the divorce ... well sort of, but its very expensive.

So, we had to divorce again in Brazil.

If any married couple moves to Brazil for work or whatever, they will have to marry again if they want to keep their status.

Brazil recognizes common law status and gay marriage.

Actual marriage is for pensions, or medical coverage from work ... etc.
