Do Brazil passport holders need a visa to visit VE?

No visa needed. Brazilian ordinary passport holders can enter Venezuela visa-free for tourism for up to 90 days (extendable once). A tourist card is issued on arrival by air, and a yellow fever vaccination certificate is required when arriving from Brazil. Brazil and Venezuela are both Mercosur members, and Venezuela grants visa-free tourist entry to Brazilian ordinary passport holders for up to 90 days, extendable once for a similar period at a SAIME immigration office. Travelers arriving by air receive a free tourist card (tarjeta de ingreso) on arrival; the passport should be valid for at least 6 months. Under the Mercosur travel-document agreement, Brazilian citizens may in principle enter using a valid national ID (RG) as tourists, though carrying a passport is strongly recommended given current operational uncertainty. A critical health requirement applies: travelers coming from Brazil must present a valid International Yellow Fever Vaccination Certificate (taken at least 10 days before travel). Note that overland/sea entries can be subject to stricter checks, and non-tourism purposes (work, study, journalism, volunteering) require an advance visa. Travelers should also be aware that multiple governments maintain strong travel advisories for Venezuela due to crime, shortages, and political instability. Always confirm with the nearest Venezuelan consulate before departure, as diplomatic relations and entry practice can shift.
