Do Brazil passport holders need a visa to visit GT?

Brazilian ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa for tourism in Guatemala. They are admitted visa-free for up to 90 days as a Category A nationality. A Brazil (BR) ordinary passport holder can travel to Guatemala for tourism without a visa. Guatemala classifies Brazil as a Category A nationality, granting visa-free entry for stays of up to 90 days, granted at the port of entry by the Instituto Guatemalteco de Migracion. There is no advance application, eVisa, or visa-on-arrival fee for tourism. Important caveat: Guatemala is a member of the CA-4 Border Control Agreement together with El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua. The 90-day allowance is shared across all four CA-4 countries combined, not 90 days per country. Travelers must hold a passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of departure, and immigration or the airline may ask for proof of onward/return travel and sufficient funds. Guatemala is not in the Schengen area, so the EU 90/180 Schengen rule and ETIAS do not apply. Always reconfirm with your airline before departure, as visa-exempt boarding is at the carrier's discretion and rules can change.
