E-Visa
Over the years we have had feedback from many of our international industry colleagues on just how complicated it has been to apply for a Brazilian Visa, and that changes to this process would be a critical factor for Brazil to receive more guests from these countries.
We are happy to share that the Brazilian government has finally decided to make changes that dramatically simplify the process, making it much faster and much cheaper too!
Citizens of the USA, Canada, and Japan can apply online as soon as 72-hours before departure! Australians have had access to the system since November and it has proved popular and easy to use...
See below for some quick FAQs:
Where do I apply?
Through the dedicated website - http://vfsglobal.com/brazil-evisa/index.html
How much does it cost?
Approximately USD $44 per person (previously it cost around USD $160!). Payment can be made online by credit card.
How long does it take?
Less than 5 business days (previously it could take up to 40 days) after payment is made.
Is the process entirely online?
Yes!
See you in Brazil soon!
