US citizens receive a 10-year Brazil eVisa; Canadian and Australian citizens receive a 5-year eVisa. All Brazil eVisas allow multiple entries with a maximum stay of 90 days per visit and no more than 90 days in any 12-month period.
| Nationality | Validity | Entries | Max Stay per Visit |
|---|---|---|---|
| United States | 10 years | Multiple | 90 days |
| Canada | 5 years | Multiple | 90 days |
| Australia | 5 years | Multiple | 90 days |
Understanding the 90-Day Rule
The Brazil eVisa 90-day limit works as follows:
- You can stay up to 90 days on any single visit
- You cannot exceed 90 days total in any 12-month rolling period
- Example: If you visit for 60 days in March, you can only stay 30 more days before March of the following year
- The 12-month period is rolling, not calendar-year based
What Happens When the eVisa Expires?
When your Brazil eVisa expires (after 5 or 10 years), you must apply for a new one at brazil.vfsevisa.com and pay the $80.90 USD fee again. An expired eVisa cannot be extended – you must submit a completely new application.
Can I Extend My Stay Beyond 90 Days?
Extending your stay beyond 90 days requires applying for a different visa category through the Brazilian Federal Police (Policia Federal). Tourist eVisa holders cannot extend their stay simply by leaving and re-entering. Attempting to overstay may result in fines, deportation, and future entry bans.
