Lithuanian passport holders can enter Brazil for tourism or business stays up to 90 days without a visa. This policy remains in effect for 2026, simplifying short visits.
Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your stay | Your passport needs at least two blank pages for entry stamps. Brazil strictly enforces the 6-month validity rule — if your passport expires sooner, you'll be denied boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Brazil | Immigration officers at GRU and GIG routinely ask for a return or onward ticket. A flight reservation or bus ticket out of the country works — they just want to see you're not staying indefinitely. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Have a printed or digital hotel confirmation ready. If staying with friends, a signed letter with their address and CPF number helps. Officers rarely ask, but it's a quick way to show your itinerary. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Bank statement or credit card | Carry a recent bank statement showing at least R$ 500 per day of stay, or a credit card with a visible limit. I've never been asked, but the law allows them to check. | Recommended |
Overstaying is costly
If you stay beyond 90 days, you'll face a fine of about R$100 per day (around €18) and may be banned from re-entering Brazil for up to 5 years. Set a calendar reminder to leave on time.
Keep a digital copy of your passport
Take a photo of your passport's data page and your entry stamp. If you lose your passport, this makes replacement at the embassy much faster.

Frequently asked questions
No, the visa-free stay is not extendable. You must leave Brazil before the 90 days are up. Overstaying can result in fines and future entry bans.
If you stay airside and don't pass through immigration, you generally don't need a visa. But if you need to leave the transit area or your layover is long, check with your airline. For most short transits, no visa is required.
You will likely be denied boarding by the airline or refused entry by Brazilian immigration. Renew your passport before traveling. The 6-month rule is strictly enforced.
No, there is no official requirement to show proof of funds for Lithuanian passport holders. However, if asked, having a credit card or bank statement can help.
The visa-free entry is for tourism and business activities like meetings. Remote work for a foreign employer is generally tolerated for short stays, but it's a gray area. For long-term digital nomad stays, consider Brazil's digital nomad visa.
No vaccines are mandatory for entry from Lithuania. However, yellow fever vaccination is recommended if you're traveling to rural areas or the Amazon. Check with your doctor 4-6 weeks before travel.
No, Brazil does not require an online arrival declaration for Lithuanian passport holders. You simply fill out a paper form on the plane or at immigration.
