Non-Brazilian citizens who are family members of Brazilian nationals or of foreign nationals who are permanent or temporary residents in Brazil may request a family reunion visa to live in Brazil with said Brazilian national or permanent or temporary foreign resident.

A "family member" is:

II - a child of a foreign citizen who is a temporary or pemanent resident in Brazil, regardless of age or whether the child is economically dependent of the foreign citizen; however, the foreign citizen cannot be a temporary or permanent resident because of a family reunion visa;
III - a stepchild of a Brazilian citizen or of a foreign citizen who is a temporary or permanent resident in Brazil if below the age of 18, or when student if below the age of 24, or regardless of age when economically dependent of the Brazilian or foreign citizen; however, the foreign citizen cannot be a temporary or permanent resident because of a family reunion visa;

V - a grandparent to a Brazilian grandchild or to a foreign grandchild who is a temporary or permanent resident in Brazil; however, the foreign grandchild cannot be a temporary or permanent resident because of a family reunion visa;

VII - a sibling to a Brazilian citizen or to a foreign citizen who is a temporary or permanent resident in Brazil, if below the age of 18, or when student if below the age of 24, or regardless of age when economically dependent of the Brazilian or foreign citizen; however, the foreign citizen cannot be a temporary or permanent resident because of a family reunion visa;
VIII - a person who has custody or guardianship over a Brazilian citizen, regardless of the age of the Brazilian citizen.
The family reunion visa is valid for up to one year, renewable at the Federal Police in Brazil, even if the family member has a visa to Brazil valid for longer than one year.
