| I want to apply for the Brazil e-visa for an upcoming holiday. Can someone walk me through the application process? How long does it take and what info do I need? |

The Brazil e-visa is all done online, no embassy visit needed. Here’s a quick walkthrough: head to the official Brazilian government e-visa portal, create an account, and fill in your personal details, passport information, and travel plans. You’ll also need to upload a passport-style photo and a scan of your passport bio page, then pay the fee by card.
Processing typically takes up to 2 weeks, though many applications come through faster. I’d recommend applying at least 3 to 4 weeks before your trip to give yourself a comfortable buffer.
Info you’ll need ready: your passport (valid for at least 6 months), travel dates, accommodation details in Brazil, and a card to pay the fee. Official portal here: https://formulario-mre.serpro.gov.br/ena/index.xhtml
