Dear Clients and Colleagues: 

As you aware, Brazil is worldwide known for its Carnival. 

Because it is a moveable feast, the holiday date changes every year. This year, Carnival will be celebrated on February 20 and 21 (Monday and Tuesday). 

Owing that the State and Federal Courts, as well as the BPTO, will be closed on these days, our office will be closed during the holydays, too, reopening only on Wednesday, February 22. 

Nonetheless, to be on the safe side, we will be reading emails.

Please be aware that deadlines expiring during the holidays will be automatically extended to Wednesday (February 22), the first workday after the carnival holydays. 

We will be re-opening our office this Wednesday (February 22), at 1:00 p.m.
