Do Brazil passport holders need a visa to visit SI?
Brazilian ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa to visit Slovenia for tourism. Slovenia is in the Schengen Area, so Brazilians can stay up to 90 days within any 180-day period visa-free. ETIAS is not yet in operation (planned for the last quarter of 2026), so no advance authorisation is required right now. Slovenia is a full member of the Schengen Area, and Brazil holds a visa-waiver agreement with the European Union for short stays. As of 31 May 2026, a Brazilian ordinary passport holder may enter Slovenia and the wider Schengen zone for tourism, business meetings, family visits or transit without any visa, for a maximum of 90 days within any rolling 180-day period. No fee and no pre-travel form is currently required: you simply present a valid passport at the external Schengen border. The passport must be valid for at least three months beyond the intended date of departure and issued within the previous 10 years. Border officers may still ask for proof of accommodation, a return/onward ticket, travel medical insurance and sufficient funds. Two upcoming EU systems are relevant. The Entry/Exit System (EES) is being rolled out to register non-EU travellers' entries and exits biometrically. ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) is scheduled to begin in the last quarter of 2026; once live, visa-exempt nationals such as Brazilians will need a EUR 20 online travel authorisation (valid 3 years or until passport expiry) before travelling. Until ETIAS is officially in operation, Brazilian travellers remain fully visa-exempt with nothing to apply for. The 90/180 limit is strict and cumulative across all Schengen countries, not per country; overstaying can lead to fines, removal and entry bans.
