Visa-Free USA Entry for Brazilian Citizens

Brazil was admitted to the US Visa Waiver Program (VWP) in October 2024. Brazilian passport holders may now visit the USA for tourism or business for up to 90 days without a B1/B2 visa.

ESTA / Pre-Travel Authorisation

As part of VWP membership, Brazilian travellers are expected to register with the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) before travel. Check esta.cbp.dhs.gov for current requirements and fees. The standard fee is USD 21.

Documents Needed at the US Border

  • Valid Brazilian passport
  • ESTA / pre-travel authorisation (check current requirements)
  • Return or onward ticket
  • Proof of accommodation
  • Sufficient funds for the duration of stay

Working or Studying in the USA

Visa Waiver Program entry does not allow work, study, or employment. Brazilians planning to work or study in the USA must apply for the correct visa (H-1B, L-1, F-1, etc.) at the US Embassy before travelling.
