Anyone else notice how these low bandwidth monkeys steal from each other? It is the jungle.

It couldn't be more fair.

Viva Lula!

This Visa requirement has been there since forever. It only paused during the pandemic but other than that it's nothing new. It's not that bad. Cheaper than scandalo.

I will be coming into Brazil for 2 months. Will I have to show proof of onward travel at Immigration?

I would prefer to decide my onward destination later on.

No. You get 90 days.

It's a FU to the USA because the USA requires Brazilians to get a visa. EU doesn't require Brazilians to get a visa so Brazil allows EU passport holders to travel to Brazil without a visa.

What is the reason for the visa beyond a passport?

What is the reason for the visa beyond a passport? I've reviewed the website and application process.

It is only that if a country makes their citizens do it, then they make the citizens of that country do it.

What is the reason for the visa beyond a passport? I've reviewed the website and application process. It appears to be basically the same information that is already on a passport. I'm not crazy about the bank statement thing either. Since it takes a substantial amount of money to fly to Brazil and stay for a vacation etc. , it makes very little sense to me. Obviously its a revenue generator is that it? The website says it takes 5 days to get the Evisa can someone confirm if that is accurate? Apparently you can't apply for the visa until you actually have the flight booked.

Have you tried using a VPN? The Azul app on my phone is always in Portuguese and showing reais no matter where I am or whether my VPN is set to Brazil or not.

I've no problem showing the prices in reais. The problems I had were with the Latam and Gol sites. They didn't allow to buy a ticket one the brazilian site as a foreigner using a foreign credit card.

[Mr Enternational]

I travel all over Brazil and buy a lot of domestic flights in Brazil. Mostly with Latam or GOL as they usually have the cheapest tickets. Sometimes their sites works really bad. Furthermore it's hard to manage to buy tickets showing the price in reais. When changing to another currency the price becomes way more expensive.

Today I chose to buy a ticket with Azul on a route where Azul was less than half the price of Latam. I was really impressed how smoothly the Azul site worked when buying a ticket in foreign currency. Also, the price in foreign currency didn't become more expensive that the price in reais.

They can learn about simply by your address, zip code or city. They don't need bank statement to know if someone is wealthy or not.

Exactly. And the cartel is not going around kidnapping or extorting people they already know have money because they already see it is a fancy neighborhood, but people here think they will be kidnapped because they sent in a paper. Go figure.

[Nounce]

I am saying that if you have ever been to Brazil, they already have your name, address.....

Tijuana, you are at the mercy of the Brazilian government when you are there. They can throw you in jail or kill you when you are there. The issue is why would they?

Mexico does the same thing with Colombians but it is not just official. They only want people coming in who can spend money.

If you are worried about Brazil, open up an account, put in 2 k, get into the country, and withdraw money from the account once you clear customs.

I would rather show them my money when I get there. That's all I'm saying. Having a chick that makes 15 dollars a day that could be compromised doesn't sit well with me.
