If you had to pick between Tinder and SA which one would you focus your time on in Brazil. When I was in Medellin I had about 40 likes but only 1 match. Which means I was only attracted to 1 girl that was interested in me. The other 39 I left swiped on. I'm hoping for better results in RIO.
[QUOTE=Mimic86;2656188] [b]Nomad Visa.[/b] Looks like Brasil has a new visa. Wanted to share. Anyone know tax implications when working remote abroad? Are they allowing you to work tax free?
[URL]https://www.fragomen.com/insights/brazil-digital-nomad-visa-introduced.html [/URL][/QUOTE] The Brazil Digital Nomad Visa, looks very interesting and very promising. Thank You! Nice find, BTW.
Several BMs have in the recent past (especially during COVID-19), asked about working from Brazil in a legal capacity, this may be of some help.
Not sure, what taxes are you referring to w/r to [i]"work tax free"? [/i] Wouldn't that be a tax function of your home residing country?
The minimum requirement of just [b]USD$18K [/b], in you bank account, in order to work from/stay a year in Brazil, is very enticing, indeed.
Also the visa is [i] "...renewable for the same period if the applicant continues to meet eligibility criteria (including a clean criminal record)."[/i]
[QUOTE=Gabbarsing;2656289]Ok, so now that I am flying to Rio next week, I want to check what kind of test local girls tend to trust more for scoring BBFS. I got below 3 done. Anything else should I be considering to take?
Chlamydia SP RNA, urine, amplified probe.
Neisseria gonorrhoeae SP RNA, urine, amplified probe.
HIV.[/QUOTE]You are good with those. Exactly what I just got done last week.
My quick search tells me that, US citizens does not require any kind of visa to visit and stay in Brazil for 10 days. Can someone confirm? (apart from ANVISA that I need to do no prior than 24 hours of boarding).
I know answer could vary a lot but typically how much cash folks carry for like 10 days trip to Brazil.

1) Will the company you work for face tax issues if they allow you to work in Brazil for 1 year.
2) Will Brazil expect you to pay taxes on the money you are earning from your employer.
I think last year there was a big issue with an America female who was deported from Bali, Indonesia. She was on Instagram daily, bragging about what an amazing lifestyle she had in Bali while working remotely from her laptop. When the authorities caught wind, they deported her for not paying taxes. She was complaining that they kicked her out of the country because she was a lesbian.

Internet attention has made it impossible for some people to keep their mouths shut. She could have still been there the same way Cuba Dave could have still been in Costa Rica had they just kept it on the low.

Okay, I get it now! The [i]"work tax free"[/i] question that Mimic86 asked, was referring to your bulletin point #2.
I assumed (perhaps wrongly so), that the point of this visa, was to win-over, recruit and more importantly [b]KEEP[/b] "butts in Brazil" or foreign nationalist with "boots-on-the-ground" (for lack of a better term), spending tons of money in their local economies. Spending for their domestic living arrangements and ONLY pay local taxes (if any), related to things like housing, and transportation. Basically take advantage and benefit from this worldwide "nomadic" virtual workplace trend. But perhaps NOT!
I did read on some more and in the "Background" section, under [b]"Remote work visa warning"[/b], it warns that tax law implications may exit but states, "In countries where remote work is unregulated...". Again I assume the purpose of this Nomad Visa is to regulate such work activities in Brazil.
Anyway, what can say, is that it's early days (visa began on Jan 24th, 2022) and will watch for clarification, in the days to come.

[QUOTE=Bravo;2656303]That was a smart decision you made. My current Brasilian girlfriend in 19 years younger than me. Nobody bats an eye when we go out.[/QUOTE]If a girl that's 19 years younger than me wanted me I'd not be interested, she'd be way too old for me.
[QUOTE=Gabbarsing;2656392]I know answer could vary a lot but typically how much cash folks carry for like 10 days trip to Brazil.[/QUOTE]I carry some cash for emergency but spent none. If you really need to carry cash, 200 USD to 300 USD a day should be enough for one session a day. No visa needed to enter Brazil.
[QUOTE=Turgid;2656612]If a girl that's 19 years younger than me wanted me I'd not be interested, she'd be way too old for me.[/QUOTE]Hahaha I guess I don't think about it much but all my best girls are over 35 years younger than me. LOL.
Hey dude,
Como vai? I am in Rio. Isso e' meu primeiro vez no Brasil. I am studying Porto. For the last few months I have been reading your reports with great enthusiasm. You have a colorful way of describing things. If you ever feel like having a Wingman let me know. Keep in mind I am still a rookie LOL.
P.S. I tried to send you a private message but was blocked.
[QUOTE=Rfisk;2657015]Isso e' meu primeiro vez no Brasil. I am studying Porto.[/QUOTE]Study more, "minha primeira vez".
Must be the only place I carry cash. I carry no cards, cheap old phone, battery pack. That's it depending on the day and I love food be difficult to spend more than a 1000 Reis per day on average. If I take out then have money at 'home'. I prefer Betecos than any pseudo posh place. Typically sit in Jobi for hours and find it difficult to spend my money.
S.
