Looks like Lula has decided to re-implement the reciprocity (retaliation fee as it used to get nicknamed here) for Visitors to Brazil starting in October
Visitors from the following countries will be required to pay the following fee, assuming the structure is the same as
pre-2019:
USA - $160
Australia - $120
Canada - $80
Japan - $80
There is further reporting that it will not be as cumbersome as it was previously, rather taking a middle of the road approach via an eVisa
in which citizens of the above countries can do everything online in a similar manner as Argentina previously, and countries like Turkey,
India, and Vietnam practice today.
We'll have to see if the EU's ETIAS scheme (similar to the US' ESTA and Canada's eTA) will result in EU citizens paying fees for visiting Brazil
in 2024 when it's expected to come online.
According to the Brazilian Ministry of Foreign Relations, those of us from the above mentioned countries who have DNIs WILL need to hold a visa or eVisa to enter Brazil:
3) Los extranjeros con residencia regular en Argentina:
a) si nacionales de países para los cuales no se exige visa, podrán ingresar a Brasil con DNI de extranjero valido, en buen estado de conservación con foto que permita reconocer al titular;
b) si nacionales de países para los cuales la visa es exigida, deberán ingresar a Brasil con pasaporte de su nacionalidad y visa correspondiente.
