Indonesia to Brazil visa requirements

Indonesian ordinary passport holders can visit Brazil visa-free for tourism or business for up to 30 days. If the trip will exceed 30 days, obtain a Brazilian visitor visa before travel. Brazil's Embassy in Jakarta states that bearers of Indonesian passports visiting Brazil as tourists or on business are visa-exempt for a period not exceeding 30 days, and its VIVIS page says Indonesian citizens still need a valid visa for trips of more than 30 days. Brazilian consular eVisa guidance is for U.S., Canadian, and Australian passports, not Indonesian ordinary passports. For a short visitor trip, travel with a valid Indonesian passport, at least one blank page, return or onward travel, accommodation or invitation details, and evidence that you can support yourself during the stay. Visa-free entry does not authorize paid work or residence, and final admission remains with Brazilian immigration at the port of entry. Yellow fever vaccination is not a general Brazil entry requirement, but it is recommended for some Brazilian regions and may be required by a later destination after time in Brazil.

Leave within the allowed stay
