NEW YORK POST
US travelers hoping to visit the beautiful beaches of Brazil will have to acquire a visa first beginning in 2025 — meaning they’ll have to share their bank statements with the South American country.
Beginning April 10, 2025, Brazil-bound travelers from the US, Canada and Australia need to be approved for a visa before their trip, CNN reported.
The application includes providing proof of income by either showing their last three checking or savings account statements or their previous six pay stubs, according to the Brazilian government’s website. Those who do not meet the threshold of $2,000 or more will need a sponsor.
Fortunately, the application process for an e-visa can be done online rather than at a consulate in person.
The visa fee is $80.90 with a 10-year validity and stays are limited to 90 days per year, the US Consulate in Brazil announced.
Additionally, Americans must provide a letter of intent outlining the duration and purpose of their trip and include information about where they will be staying.
They additionally must prove their US citizenship and show return tickets.
