Who needs visa to go to Brazil?


Brazil requires US citizens to carry a valid passport and visa to enter the country. You can get the visa in any Brazilian consulate or embassy, also there will be some fees you have to pay.


If you are coming from Australia, Canada, Japan, Mexico, Russia, and China you DO need a visa to come to Brazil.

Many other countries do too, I just listed a few.


Some South American countries just need an ID to travel and some other countries are required to pay a fee, these procedures are always reciprocal to what these countries require from Brazilian citizens traveling to their country. 

Here is a list of countries that don’t need visa, just a valid passport with at least six months validity past your arrival in Brazil. Some South American countries just need an ID to travel and some other countries are requirens.

  1. Hello Fernanda, thanks for your blog.
    I have a question regarding 6 months validity. I could not find any information about this requirement.
    Is this a requirement from the Brazilian authorities for all couintries on your list?
    Again thanks for you assistance.
