"Brazilian citizens enjoy a visa waiver for short-term tourism in the Schengen Area but require an ETIAS authorization starting in 2026."

Core Requirements for Brazil Applicants

To apply for a Schengen Visa Waiver (with ETIAS) to Portugal, you must provide specific documentation that proves your intent to return and your financial stability.

Valid Biometric Passport

Original Brazilian biometric passport valid for at least 3 months beyond your intended date of departure from the Schengen Area. Must have at least two blank pages.

ETIAS Travel Authorization

Approved ETIAS authorization linked to your passport. Apply online via the official EU portal (travel-europe.europa.eu/etias) at least 96 hours before travel.
