_Diário Oficial, 22.07.2026: Eva Bekhtold refused citizenship ([in.gov.br](https://www.in.gov.br/consulta))_

### Why Eva has no citizenship, and questions about her residence

**The official reason.** According to Diário Oficial of 22.07.2026, Eva did not show up at the Federal Police to have her original documents checked and give biometrics.

**What citizenship requires.** The Migration Law ([Lei 13.445/2017](https://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/_ato2015-2018/2017/lei/l13445.htm), art. 65) requires that the applicant has no criminal conviction. The application includes a criminal record certificate from the country of origin; the police check the original.

**What there is in Russia.** The Russian Interior Ministry certificate states "whether there is a criminal record and (or) criminal prosecution". Eva is a defendant in case 461 under art. 322.2 of the Russian Criminal Code (10 counts), suspended with the note "the accused has absconded and his whereabouts are unknown". [More on the case](https://kamalandeva.com/en/eva-bekhtold.html#delo-461)

**Our conclusion.** In our assessment she cannot obtain a certificate without a record of criminal prosecution, and without it Brazil will not grant her citizenship.

**Questions about her residence.** To apply for citizenship one must hold a Brazilian residence permit, so Eva has one. For residence the police also ask for a criminal record certificate, and the Moscow case was already under way. Which certificate she filed with the Federal Police, public sources do not show. We found no court decision in public databases ordering the police to grant her documents. Only the Federal Police can answer these questions.

## What clients and acquaintances say

> "It's a scam. Eva Bekhtold is the wife of Kamal, who runs this shop. When you buy, they give you her card number. They take the money and vanish."

Review of the "Turniki Stels" shop, 24.09.2016 · [pozhalovatsja.com](https://pozhalovatsja.com/complaints/internet-magazin/turnikistels-otziv-0001)

> "Beware: scammers in Brazil (Florianópolis) under the brand "Births in Brazil No. 1" promise help with childbirth, loans and 1% mortgages, but have no qualifications. Kamal, Eva and Lolita are rude, make threats, push people into signing powers of attorney, and do not help during the birth (they do not speak Portuguese). There are cases in Brazil and Russia."
