A visa must be obtained in advance to travel to Brazil on an Azerbaijani passport. Unlike a number of Latin American states, Brazil does not grant our citizens visa-free entry, and the e-visa option is open only to a limited set of countries.
Applications are accepted through the consular section of the Brazilian embassy in Baku. The embassy is in the Marine Plaza business centre on Uzeyir Hajibeyov Street, and consular hours run in the first half of the working day. The VIVIS tourist category allows a stay of up to 90 days.
The file includes a passport, an application form, a photo, return tickets, proof of accommodation and a bank statement showing your funds. A decision usually takes two to three weeks, so it is sensible to apply at least a month before the trip. Viza.az takes part in collecting and translating the documents and submitting them to the consulate.
