A valid passport is required to travel to Brazil. We recommend applying for one as soon as possible if you do not have it yet, as passports often take a while to be processed.
Please visit the Brazilian Tourism Office for a list of countries whose citizens need a visa. For further information about visa application requirements, contact your travel agent and/or your local Brazilian Consulate office. For U.S. and Canadian citizens a visa is required, please visit the Brazilian Embassy website in Washington. For an invitation letter for visa purposes, please register with the conference and fill out the visa request form available here.
