The stay shown is a maximum under the stated route. A shorter stay may be granted.

Other passports and travel purposes

Check your own nationality, passport type, residence, route and travel dates with the official authority. The French-passport summary is not an eligibility decision for another nationality.

Visa and entry requirements

Ordinary US, Canadian and Australian visitors have required the Brazilian visitor eVisa since 10 April 2025. The official application charge is USD 80.90. Japan is not part of this requirement: its ordinary-passport exemption is covered by a separate agreement.

Fees and processing times

A fixed fee or guaranteed processing time is not published here unless it is supported for the exact product. Consular tariffs, nationality-based exemptions and appointed-provider charges can differ.

Prepare your documents

Use the official checklist for passport validity, permitted entry points, accommodation, funds, onward travel and insurance where required. Requirements for minors, emergency passports and dual nationals can differ.

Visa validity and authorised stay

The validity of a visa or travel authorisation is the period in which it can be used. The length of each visit and the number of entries are separate conditions. Follow the admission record issued at the border.

Application, payment and decision

Choose the category matching the actual purpose of travel. Apply through the government portal or its appointed provider, check the fee before paying, and allow for requests for additional documents. Approval and entry are decided by the competent authorities.

Work, study and residence

A tourist exemption or visitor visa does not automatically authorise employment, long-term study or residence. Check the appropriate permission before starting these activities.

Extension and change of status

Apply to the competent authority before your current permission expires. An extension, change of status or re-entry is subject to its own conditions; submitting a request does not by itself establish a right to remain.
