brazil resignation letter template
In the tool, pick Resignation letter and mark how the notice will work. The letter comes out on an A4 sheet with the last working day already calculated, the company acknowledgment line and the signature line.
30 days counted from the next day.
The notice crosses the year end.
November has 30 days, so December enters the count.
February 2024 has 29 days.
The letter records that the employer may deduct the period.
No. Resigning is the employee's right and takes effect without approval. What depends on the employer is waiving the notice period: CLT article 487 requires an employee who resigns to give 30 days of notice, and the employer may agree in writing to waive it or insist on it. Without a waiver, an employee who does not serve the notice may have the pay for that period deducted (art. 487, paragraph 2). That is why the waiver version also provides for working the 30 days if the company refuses.
No. The law does not require a reason for a resignation, and the template only says the request is made on the employee's own initiative. Writing personal reasons or criticism of the company only creates risk, with no legal effect.
You can, and what matters is proof of the delivery date and that the company knew. The ideal is handing over two copies for the acknowledgment. If the company refuses, send it by email with a read receipt or by registered mail.
It depends on salary, time at the company, accrued vacation and the month of departure. Use the termination calculator on this site to simulate the pay owed, proportional 13th salary and vacation before choosing the date.
Letter from an employee who is quitting, with the notice period worked, waived or not served. The last working day is calculated for you.
The 30-day notice comes from article 487 of the CLT (Brazil's labor code); weekly-paid employees with up to 12 months of service give 8 days (item I), but the tool calculates 30 days, the most common case. If the employee does not serve it, the employer may deduct the pay for that period (art. 487, paragraph 2). Severance must be paid within 10 days of the end of the contract (art. 477, paragraph 6). The count excludes the day of the letter and includes the last day (TST Precedent 380), and the employer may agree in writing to waive the notice.
Employees with job stability, such as union leaders and CIPA (workplace safety committee) members, can only resign with union or labor authority assistance (CLT art. 500). Keep a copy signed by the company as received. The letter does not replace the termination form: check the amounts before signing.
4 required fields are blank. They print as a line to fill in by pen.
The document is produced in Portuguese, as Brazilian agencies require. In the print window, choose Save as PDF to get a file. Print it, sign with a pen and, if the recipient requires it, have your signature notarized.

The templates are general and do not replace a lawyer's advice. Some situations require a lawyer or a notary (notarized signature, public deed), and validity depends on who receives the document. Declaring something false is a crime (Penal Code, art. 299).
