Visa & Entry

Brazilian passport holders need a B1/B2 visa to enter the United States. Brazil is not part of the Visa Waiver Program, so ESTA is not available. The B1/B2 visa is typically issued with 10-year validity and allows stays of up to 180 days per visit. Interviews at a U.S. consulate in Brazil are required as part of the application.

Verify entry requirements with official sources before travel.
