Do Brazil passport holders need a visa to visit SE?

No visa required. Brazilian ordinary passport holders can enter Sweden visa-free for tourism for up to 90 days in any 180-day period across the Schengen Area. ETIAS is not yet operational as of 30 May 2026. Sweden is a member of the Schengen Area, and Brazil is on the EU's list of visa-exempt third countries. As a result, holders of an ordinary Brazilian passport may travel to Sweden for tourism, business, family visits, or transit without obtaining a visa, staying up to 90 days within any rolling 180-day period across the entire Schengen zone (27 countries). Your passport must be valid for at least three months beyond your intended departure from Schengen and have been issued within the previous 10 years. At the border you may be asked to show proof of accommodation, a return/onward ticket, sufficient funds, and travel medical insurance. The European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) — a roughly EUR 20 online travel authorisation — is scheduled to begin operations in the last quarter of 2026, with a transitional grace period extending into 2027; it is NOT required as of 30 May 2026 and no action is needed before travelling now. Once ETIAS is enforced, visa-exempt Brazilians will need an approved ETIAS linked to their passport, but the underlying visa-free status remains unchanged.
