The growing phenomenon of world globalization, intensified by the constant advances in technology, has made possible the practice of crimes which go beyond the limits of national frontiers and, more often, have its repercussions within various countries. Nevertheless, the application of criminal jurisdiction is, as a rule, guided by the principle of territoriality and, therefore, usually restricted to the illicit facts perpetrated inside a country´s territory. Considering these thoughts, the objective of this dissertation was to outline the spatial limits of the Brazilian criminal jurisdiction, starting with the rules of international penal law foreseen in our national system of laws, with special emphasis on cases related to the transnational criminality. Initially, the theme was contextualized with a succinct presentation of the basic fundaments of the jurisdiction institute. Following, the principles that lays the foundation for the Brazilian international penal law, the notion of moderate territoriality adopted by the penal code, the hypothesis of extraterritoriality and ultra-territoriality in the application of the criminal jurisdiction contemplated in our national system of laws, the physical and legal reach of the territory that Brazil exercises its sovereignty and the location of the crime defined in accordance with the theory of ubiquity, as well as other correlated terms, were studied. By the end, it was possible to outline the spatial limits of Brazilian penal law efficiency and, consequently, the boundaries of our national criminal jurisdiction, which obeys the standards of a territoriality that is made flexible by treaties, conventions, and international legal rulings which impede the exercise of the jurisdictional function in the crimes committed inside the Brazilian territory, and by specific situations and circumstances, legally foreseen, which, upheld in other international penal law principles, authorize the application of the Brazilian criminal jurisdiction in illicit crimes perpetrated abroad
