Brazilian Visas
Beginning April 10, 2025, the Brazilian government will require Americans, Australians, and Canadians to have visas to travel to Brazil. Fear not, though; the process is pretty painless both in terms of time and money. I would normally start with the online address, but there are a few things you need to have ready first: As usual, You Tube is a great source of information for a how-to like this. We recommend starting with this short video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cotk7SGi8aY. Go to the visa website: www.bronline.vfsevisa.com. The screen shown below will appear. After entering the initial data, click on the “Sign Up” link. A 5-digit code called an OTP will be sent to your email inbox. Once you enter that OTP in the designated field, you can begin the application. Mine was very smooth from that point on, and my visa arrived by email within two days. Note: There is a place in the process where you can trim down your picture to the specs required for the visa. The visa instructions ask for specific pixel counts but don’t let that worry you. The pixel counts for the x- and y-directions will be displayed as you bring in your photo. It should be pretty easy, but if you encounter any hitches we can help you. Finally, the site will ask for your visa application fee. The fee is $80.00 plus an additional $0.90 for the servicing fee. Total is $80.90 and you will receive an emailed receipt instantaneously. It will look like this: Be advised that you DO NOT have to have your airline ticket in order to obtain your visa. While the visa is valid for 10 years, the holder is limited to maximum continuous stays of 90 days. Contact us with any questions. Sampa Tour(281) 814-0093info@sampatour.com
