+ Step by step to get Brazilian passport
In May 2023, the federal government resumed visa requirements for tourists from the United States, Australia, Canada and Japan, deeming the exemption was not reciprocal. According to the Foreign Ministry, the agreement with the Japanese government “stems from Prime Minister Fumio Kishida’s announcement, on the occasion of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s visit to Japan last May, in the sense of extending the visa waiver to Brazilians, which allowed the Brazilian government to adopt the same measure for Japanese citizens, based on the principles of reciprocity and equal treatment between states”.
