Brazil has launched an electronic visa platform for visitors from the U.S., Canada and Australia when the waiver currently in place for those countries expires next month.
For arrivals beginning Jan. 10, 2024, visitors from those countries can apply for visas via a system developed by the Brazilian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and obtain them at the cost of US$80.90 per person. The electronic visas allow multiple entries and will be valid 5 years for Canadians and Australians and 10 years for U.S. residents.
Brazil issued a visa waiver for all three countries in 2019, but that was contingent on a reciprocal waiver agreement from each country, which has not happened. Brazil and Japan, however, reached a bilateral agreement in September in which travelers from each country do not need visas for trips up to 90 days to the other country.
