Do Brazil passport holders need a visa to visit GQ?
Brazilian ordinary passport holders need a visa for Equatorial Guinea and can obtain it online via the official eVisa, launched 1 July 2023. The single-entry tourist eVisa permits a stay of up to 90 days and is processed in roughly 24-72 hours (allow up to 10 business days). Entry must be through Malabo International Airport, and a yellow fever vaccination certificate is mandatory. A Brazil (BR) ordinary passport holder traveling to Equatorial Guinea (GQ) for tourism requires a visa. Equatorial Guinea does NOT grant visa-free access to ordinary Brazilian passports; only holders of Brazilian diplomatic, official, or service passports enjoy a 90-day visa waiver. For tourism, the recommended route is the official Equatorial Guinea eVisa, introduced on 1 July 2023 and available to all nationalities through the government's online portal (operated via VFS Global at egonline.vfsevisa.com, with the public-facing site equatorialguinea-evisa.com). The eVisa is single-entry and permits a stay of up to 90 days. Applicants must enter through Malabo International Airport, the only authorized eVisa entry point. The commonly cited government processing fee is around USD 75, though some sources reference a base consular charge of about 10,000 XAF; service providers add their own fees. Processing is typically 24-72 hours, but travelers should allow up to 10 business days. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is mandatory, and the passport must be valid for at least 6 months. Travelers who cannot or prefer not to use the eVisa may apply at an Equatorial Guinea embassy/consulate (the nearest accredited mission for Brazil), but the eVisa is the simplest current channel. Sources conflict slightly on exact fees and processing windows, so figures here reflect the most authoritative and conservative reading as of 2026-05-30.
