Traveling with a Brazilian passport in 2025 unlocks access to more than 170 countries and territories visa-free or with simplified entry. Recognized as one of the most powerful passports in Latin America, the Brazilian passport allows easy travel across Europe, the Americas, Asia, and more — whether for tourism, business, or spontaneous adventure.
In this guide, we list all the visa-free countries for Brazilian passport holders, provide helpful travel tips, and share what to expect at immigration.

- eVisa: Apply online before your trip
