Planning to travel to Brazil from Bangalore? Indian passport holders need a consular tourist visa (VIVIS). The tourist eVisa is not available to Indian passport holders. Applications from Karnataka go through the Consulate General of Brazil in Mumbai, with an online application and a physical document submission. The visa allows a stay of up to 90 days per entry. This page explains the visa information, documents required, the application process, fees, processing time, and how to avoid rejection, and how DocuPro can help you apply from Bangalore.

Documents Required

• Original passport valid for at least 6 months, with at least 2 blank pages
• Online application form receipt (RER), printed and signed
• Recent passport-size photograph with a white background, as per consular specifications
• Covering letter stating the purpose of travel, itinerary and your ties to India
• Confirmed round-trip flight bookings and hotel reservations, or a notarised invitation letter from a resident in Brazil
• Bank statements for the last 3 months showing sufficient funds
• Salary slips and Income Tax Returns (ITR)
• Medical and travel insurance valid for your entire stay in Brazil

Visa Process

1. Fill in the online visa application form and upload scans of your documents on the official e-consular platform.
2. Print and sign the application receipt (RER) with its barcode.
3. Wait for the email confirming that your digital paperwork is validated and an appointment slot is authorised.
4. Pay the consular fee by identified bank transfer. The applicant's name must appear on the transfer record, and transfers by third parties or agents are rejected.
5. Submit your original documents in person at the Consulate General of Brazil in Mumbai, or through an authorised representative or agency with an authorisation letter. Postal submissions without prior approval are generally not accepted.
6. Wait for processing, usually 10-15 business days.
7. Collect your passport with the visa.

Fee and Processing Time

Consular fee: ₹9,600, non-refundable.

Processing time: 10-15 business days after physical submission, depending on seasonal workload.

Yellow Fever Certificate

• A yellow fever vaccination certificate is not strictly mandatory to enter Brazil, but it is highly recommended if you visit endemic rural or jungle regions.
• On your return, India requires travellers arriving from yellow fever-endemic countries, including Brazil, to carry a valid yellow fever vaccination certificate.

Precautions to Avoid Rejection

• Apply for a consular visa. The tourist eVisa is not available to Indian passport holders.
• Make sure the name and details on the online form match your passport and documents exactly.
• Pay the consular fee from the applicant's own account. Third-party and agent transfers are rejected.
• Ensure passport validity of at least 6 months, with 2 blank pages.
• Show clear funds and ties to India through bank statements, salary slips and ITR.
• Match your covering letter, flight bookings and hotel reservations to the same dates and purpose.
• Apply well ahead of travel, allowing for the appointment and 10-15 business days of processing.
