IMPORTANT INFORMATION

1. The purpose of the trip and the intended length of stay determine which visa will be required under Brazilian immigration law. There are two main types of visas: Visitor Visas (VIVIS) and Temporary Visas (VITEM).
   
   
2. As shown in the table of contents below, a VIVIS applies to a range of travel purposes for maximum stays of up to 90 days. For some of these purposes, if the intended stay exceeds 90 days, a VITEM must be requested. Temporary Visas are broken down into sub-categories (VITEM I to VITEM XIV), according to specific travel purposes and lengths of stay.
   
   
3. VITEM holders must register with the Federal Police within 90 days from first entry. Upon registration, the individual will have to present a document containing both parents’ full names (e.g. full birth certificate/personbevis fullform), which must be duly apostilled by the competent authority in the issuing country (Notarius Públicus in Sweden) and subsequently translated into Portuguese by a sworn translator ("tradutor juramentado") in Brazil. Swedish documents must be APOSTILLED by the Notarius Públicus in Sweden.
   
   
4. Passports must be valid for the entire period the individual intends to remain in Brazil. 
   
   
5. Visa applicants must meet all requirements to receive the category of visa for which they are applying. The Consulate may request additional information or documentation, as deemed necessary.
