🇧🇷 Brazil visa requirements for Australian citizens

Entry rules for Australia passport holders

Holders of a valid passport from Australia can travel to Brazil for tourism or short business trips without applying for a visa, for stays of up to 90 days. You'll typically just need a passport valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date, and you may be asked to show proof of onward travel or sufficient funds at the border.

The 90-day limit applies to the visit itself — if you plan to stay longer, work, or study in Brazil, you'll need to apply for the appropriate visa or permit before traveling.

Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Brazil immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.

How this compares

The Australian passport ranks #24 worldwide, opening 161 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (112 visa-free, 42 with a visa on arrival and 7 with an eTA). Brazil is one of them.

This is not reciprocal — traveling the other way, Brazilian citizens need to arrange entry to Australia in advance (e-visa).

Across South America as a whole, 10 of 12 destinations are open to Australian travelers without arranging a visa in advance.
