People who apply for CPF in diplomatic representations abroad can sit and wait, because the process to get a CPF number this way usually takes months. In this case, it can take an average of 15 days (when a card containing your name and CPF number will be delivered at your house). The number will be available in 48 hours after the inscription, except if the request was done at a Correios/Banco do Brasil agency.
