Good day everyone, wonderful thread and my appreciation to everyone sharing information on this thread.I want to ask how long it takes for the Brazil consulate to acknowledge application. I submitted my application via their website last week Saturday and I am yet to get an acknowledgement of my application. Because I read on this page that one is supposed to get an email stating application in being reviewed. I read somewhere that it's supposed to be within 48hrs, I don't know if this had changed. Thank you

Hello everyone,

I am new here, and while this thread has been helpful, I’d like to get some clarifications.

My application was approved on July 1st and I was given 1 year visa. My husband & child will apply soon so that we can all travel together. I will be due in October so I want to ensure my stay does not exceed the 90 days duration on my visa.

Hello everyone,

About three weeks ago, we welcomed our son and I immediately kick start the PR process.

I had to wait and do all this stuff so I can write a comprehensive post and I hope someone will find it helpful..

We had our baby in Sao Paulo, I don’t know if the process is different in another state.

Immediately after the birth of the baby, we were given a document that I took to the Cartorio to register my baby and get the original birth certificate of the new born.

A few days later, I proceeded with the baby’s RG registration at Paupa Tempo, (RG is the citizenship card of the Brazilian child and you need to make an appointment before going to Paupa Tempo), baby’s picture was captured and we were given a date to come and pick up the RG card.

With those two documents, I can now process the PR for my family and also apply for the baby’s International passport.

Below is a list of documents needed to process the PR.

Online application form confirmation page
Photocopy of all passport pages
Child birth certificate
Child RG
Birth cert translation ( embassy)
Police report translation ( embassy)
Original Police report cert in English
applicant CPF
Payment of 168.13 reais, 204.77 reais each or the PR application
A lot of declaracao (declaration) such as:-
Declaraco de endereco electrónico e demais meios de contato
Certidao estadual de criminais
Certidao de distribuição
Declaracao de residencia
Declaracao de manutenção
Prove or address in Brazil ( bill)
2 passport photo

As for the baby’s international passport, documents needed are:-

The Brazilian child birth certificate.
The Brazilian child RG
Parents international passport,
5x7 passport photograph of the Brazilian child
Online application form
Some declaração (declaration)
Payment of 257.25 reais
(Both parents must be present)


After getting all the documents in order, we went to police federal and submitted the PR application. We now have our protocols while waiting for the actual CRNM card...
We applied for the baby’s passport also and still waiting to pick it up.

Now, the process is not so easy as stated here, in fact, I got frustrated and misplaced my phone in the process. Despite reading the requirements here on this thread and having someone who has gone through the PR process here in Sao Paulo who helped me with the list of documents needed, yet, they didn’t collect our application. We went to Policia federal about 4 times before getting the complete documents. If you meet Mr ‘A’ today and he says you only need one documents and everything is good and you go with the requested documents and meet another person, that person will ask for another thing.

The language is a big barrier so Its better to get a sworn translator or anyone who can speak Portuguese to make things easy… they won’t read whatever you translated with your phone at Policia federal and most of all these places

NOTE - The PR application now takes less than two months In Sao Paulo, in fact, my friends who applied around ending of January got the CRMN card first week in March, that’s about a month.

As for the Nigerian visa for the baby, I'm still waiting for the baby’s passport and making enquiries. As soon as I am done with that, I will revert.

We didn’t get to extend our visas as the timing was right and we applied before our 3 months entry stamp expires.

I'm still gathering information on the provisional citizenship. hopefully, I can apply for my daughter before leaving Brazil If I get her CRNM card on time.

Also, If I remember any additional information regarding the PR process, I will come back and share….

Thank you all and good luck to those waiting to get their visas.

1. If I fly with Qatar and take my doctor’s report with me, will I still have issues with them?

2. I understand I will need to get a CPF immediately I get there, will my family need to get one too?

3. Can you suggest good and affordable private hospitals to check out. How much should I budget for a decent hospital? I also need help with getting a good accommodation.

4. Can my family apply for PR after the baby is born? What is the process like?

5. Is it cheaper to buy the baby items here or wait till I get to Brazil?

6. Is the cost of giving birth through CS same as vaginal delivery?

7. Any other information will be highly appreciated. 🙏🏾

Do not expect any emails from the embassy. You can only track the progress of your application through their website. Recently, it took someone’s application three weeks to move to "under review" after posting her application to the embassy. So, relax! God bless you. 🙏

Feelgoostuffs ..

You suppose use olokpa catch

The ekeocha guy and that agwadi guy plus Lawrence miracle.. those three received twice ..

2. Some were posting fake screenshot of acct num esp those pay users ..

Next time, jot down the names of those you send money and thoroughly cross check the acct name you're sending the money to ..
Those three should return the money or face some penalty .. I have policemen that can locate them and jail them up if they fail to comply.

For applications for a Minor (child under 18) when filling the application online in the Brazilian govt site, what digital signature do we have to upload for them? or can we leave their signature place blankets?

Hello bro, please I need your assistance in filling the minor consent form, most especially the latter part. Thank you.

When filling the application for minor (under 18 child) on the Brazilian Govt site, did you leave the digital signature upload place empty or did you upload digital signature of you and your spouse?

Hello guys, thank you all for all the insightful comments on this thread. They have been tremendously helpful.
My wife is just 7 weeks pregnant and we are looking forward to giving birth either in Brazil or in Mexico. We are currently living in the UK. Which takes me to my questions.

1. Has anyone applied for the Brazilian visa from the UK?

2. Do have to contact a Brazilian lawyer to assist with the visa application and advice? I would like to know where to start from.

The plan is to get her a visa first, then later on I will begin my own application.
I need help and advice on this please. Thank you guys.

Hi Untamed,

How are you? Do you have an idea of the fee's private obstetrician charges especially Dr Marcelo Santos at the sao luiz star hospital? Thank you for your contribution we are here in brazil.

Reliancemedia:
you should get France tourist Visa if you want Mexico as France or any other Schengen country Visa will grant free entry to Mexico.

For the Brazil Visa you don't need any lawyer. You are to apply from the Embassy in London. Go to the Brazil consulate site in London and read the procedures and requirements for VIVIS visa. Also read this Nairaland thread and also send the Embassy an email for possible questions you may have. People on this thread are very helpful too so you can always ask specific questions. Good luck.

ManlikeDavies:
Thank you for the suggestion. I highly appreciate it. I contacted a Brazilian immigration lawyer, and received their reply. They charge $1250 for visa processing and follow-ups for the child's citizenship and permanent residency of the parents. I suppose it's worth it considering the services they "claim" to be rendering.
Another option is if I can get recommendations to someone who has gone through the entire childbirth and permanent residency process in the past, and is currently residing in Brazil to carry us along with the whole thing. We discuss payment, then I can pursue the visa process myself.

Very big and protruding tummy. Big as in very big enough to have almost been turned down from boarding but thankfully I dodged a bullet by not flying Qatar (my preferred choice) based on untamedd's previous post. The airline stressed me a little but I was eventually allowed to fly. I am sure if it was Qatar, it would have been a No-No
