On November 11, 2017, he Brazilian Foreing Office
(Itamaraty) launched the Electronic Tourist Visa
Programme - E-VISA - for citizens of
Australia,
Canada,
Japan and the
USA.
The initiative makes the visa application for Brazil
quicker and more convenient, increasing the
efficiency of consular services. The foreign
applicant may apply for the E-VISA and obtain it
remotely, either via the website
www.vfsglobal.com/brazil-evisa
or mobile/tablet
app.
The electronic visa system is planned to begin
operating for the following countries on the
following dates:
Australia: started the operation on November 21,
2017
Japan: January 11, 2018
Canada: January 18, 2018
USA: January 25, 2018
The Brazilian E-VISA will be paid for online and
will cost USD 40, significantly cheaper than the
traditional visa. Payment can be made via
Mastercard, Visa or Union Pay. The visa will be
valid for two years from the date of issue and the
process should take an average of five working days.
Even with the new online system, it will still be
possible to request a visa through the Brazilian
consular network in the traditional way.
The electronic visa holder will be required to
present a printed copy to the airline in order to
board their flight to Brazil. The Federal Police are
fully integrated with the E-VISA, and it is
anticipated that in the near future it will also be
combined with the e-Gates at Brazilian airports,
currently exclusive to Brazilian citizens.
