Visit Visa Waiver

Since June 2019, citizens of the United States of America, Australia, Canada, and Japan are able to travel to Brazil without a visitor visa. The measure benefits holders of a valid passport traveling for tourism, business, artistic or sports activities. Visitors are granted a stay of up to 90 days, which can be extended once for the same period, as long as they do not exceed 180 days within a 12-month period, counted from the date of the first entry. If the regular stay is exceeded, the visitor will be considered an illegal alien subject to the applicable measures by the Brazilian government.

A visa is still required when traveling to Brazil on official or diplomatic missions as representatives of a foreign government or an international organization.

Jurisdiction

The Consulate General of Brazil in San Francisco provides visa services to individuals residing within its jurisdiction (Northern California, Oregon, Washington and Alaska).

Individuals residing outside of the above jurisdiction should apply for a visa at the Brazilian Consulate whose jurisdiction covers their place of residence. Please click here for information on other Brazilian Consulates in the United States and their areas of jurisdiction.

Visa Fees

Visa fees must be paid ONLY by United States Postal Service (USPS) money orders, made out to the Consulate General of Brazil in the exact amount of the service requested. Cash, checks, cards and other types of money orders are NOT accepted. 

Payment of the consular fee does not guarantee that the visa will be granted.

The visa fees listed below are cumulative and charged per each visa submission in US dollars. If you have multiple citizenships, you will be charged based on the nationality of the passport you have presented.
