Do Brazil passport holders need a visa to visit DJ?

Brazilian ordinary passport holders need a visa for Djibouti, but they can apply online for an eVisa before travel. The official portal is evisa.gouv.dj. A short-stay tourist eVisa (15-90 days) costs about USD 23, processes in roughly 2-5 business days, and requires a passport valid 6+ months. Brazil does not appear on Djibouti's visa-exemption list, so a Brazilian ordinary passport holder is not visa-free. The recommended and reliable route is the government eVisa, introduced in 2018 and issued through the official portal at evisa.gouv.dj for tourism and commerce. Two tourist-relevant categories exist: a transit eVisa (1-14 days, USD 12) and a short-stay eVisa (15-90 days, USD 23). The eVisa is delivered by email as a PDF to print and present at Ambouli International Airport (Djibouti-Ambouli) or other accepted border crossings. While Djibouti technically permits a visa on arrival for any nationality under Timatic, on-arrival availability is inconsistent and airline boarding policies vary, so applying online in advance is strongly advised. Passports must be valid for at least six months from the date of arrival, and travelers should carry proof of onward/return travel. Djibouti is in the Horn of Africa and is not part of the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply.
