Hello! I am an American traveling to Brazil in December and wanted to ask about some of the entrance requirements. I have applied for and gotten my e-Visa. I was expecting to have to show proof of $2000 in funds/my bank account but this was not asked on the e-Visa application. Is there a process for this later on or paperwork that I need to have to show customs when I travel of atleast $2000 in funds? Also, do I need to show vaccine history? What else do I need to enter outside my eVisa/Passport? Thank you!
I was in Rio for 10-days in October. Never heard about or was asked about how much money I had upon arrival, etc. Where have you seen the money as a requirement for entry? The e-Visa and my U.S. Passport are all I needed to enter though I did print copies of my apartment rental acknowledgement if I was asked (I wasn't).
an Instagram post honestly 😂🙄 thanks for clarifying!
Please don't rely on random strangers to answer your questions. Do the research on official government sites.
Good advice, except for actual recent visitors. But as you say, consult official sites. Which site are you referring to, specifically?
probably the federal police website
You’re all set with your e-Visa and passport , Brazil doesn’t usually ask visitors to show proof of funds unless there’s something unusual with your entry. Still, it’s smart to have a quick statement or app screenshot ready just in case.
You don’t need vaccine proof unless there’s a specific health alert (like yellow fever for certain regions, but not usually for major cities).
Otherwise, you’re good: e-Visa, passport valid for 6+ months, return ticket, and accommodation info.
Thank you so much!
I entered via GIG 1 week ago with the e-visa printed out. I was asked if I had been to Brazil for, which I had been pre-evisa then was told to enjoy my stay. I know technically they can ask for more but I've never heard of it actually happening. For vaccine history, Brazil doesn't require any vaccines so you don't need this one
