Not a tech startup? The classic investor route asks R$ 500,000 in a Brazilian company, and real estate has its own separate track. Therefore, choose your route before wiring a single dinar.
Dica
Landing in Brazil starts a clock: you have 90 days to register with the Federal Police and collect your CRNM card. Miss that window and you face fines plus problems renewing your status.
How long does approval take in 2026?
30-90 days on average, per Ministry of Justice data, since Decreto 12.657/2025 digitalized the flow.
Your next passport can open three times more borders. Start the 2026 route now.
