Türkiye to Brazil visa requirements

Turkish ordinary passport holders do not need a visa for short visits to Brazil. They may enter visa-free for up to 90 days. A Turkish citizen holding an ordinary passport can visit Brazil without applying for a visitor visa (VIVIS) for short tourism, business or transit stays of up to 90 days. Brazil's current official visa framework lists Türkiye as visa-exempt for VIVIS, and the Brazil Consulate-General in Istanbul states that Turkish citizens do not need a VIVIS for stays up to 90 days. The underlying Brazil-Türkiye common-passport waiver allows the initial 90-day stay to be extended by Brazilian immigration authorities, but the total stay after extension cannot exceed 180 days in a year. Türkiye's Ministry of Foreign Affairs also tells Turkish citizens that ordinary, special, service and diplomatic passport holders are visa-exempt for Brazil trips up to 90 days. Brazil's official eVisa portal does not list Türkiye among the nationalities that should apply there. Travelers should still carry a valid passport, a return or onward ticket, accommodation or invitation details, and evidence of sufficient funds because Brazilian border officers make the final admission decision.
