This document, identical in format to the Citizen Card for Portuguese nationals, is issued under the Porto Seguro Agreement to nationals of the Federative Republic of Brazil, who enjoy equal rights and duties. In this case, in the "Nacionalidade" (nationality) field, the code "BRA" appears and, on the back, the designation "CIDADÃO BRASILEIRO AO ABRIGO DO TRATADO DE PORTO SEGURO", "BRAZILIAN CITIZEN UNDER PORTO SEGURO AGREEMENT".
The document cannot be used as a travel document. For that reason it does not have a Machine Readable Zone (MRZ), but instead bears the indications "NÃO SERVE DE DOCUMENTO DE VIAGEM" and "NOT VALID AS A TRAVEL DOCUMENT".
Changes to the graphical component and to the security of the microchip and consequent changes to the version numbers follow those applied to the Citizen Card for Portuguese nationals.
