You don't need birth certificates. But your police character will have to go to Brasilia to the embassy. Then there's paperwork to be done, before beginning the final application process in whichever city you're located in. Most likely you will have to extend but I don't see that as a big issue.

Letsmove:
You do not need the birth certificates.

Dear VITEM XI applicants,

Good Evening, Please when filling the form is it better to pick submission in person or by courier ? Is there any difference submitting in person and submitting via courier? Thank you.

priscaebuka21:
Good day everyone please I am 25 weeks pregnant and I submitted my Brazil tourism online application form and also submitted the delivery receipt two days ago but the status shows “in review, wait for email “ but am yet to get any email

Also among all the requirements for tourism visa I did not submit my company introduction letter because even up till now am still waiting on them to finalise the letter and also did not submit evidence for flight reservation

So I want to know if it will cause me visa denial
And how long it will take for embassy to respond

Also want to know if anyone has applied while pregnant before and if it was approved

Thank you in advance

1. Did you include a cover letter?
2. Are you employed or work for yourself?
3. What's your purpose of visit, were you invited?

If you didn't include a cover letter, please send one now
If you're employed, your employer should also write a letter confirming your employment status and anything else that assures your return (like how you're a high value employee and no one can do your job, things like that)
If you weren't invited, your hotel reservation is okay.
For flight reservation, someone earlier mentioned that most sites now ask that you make the full payment for reservation. You can get in touch with trusted travel agents for this, you can also just check some sites on your own (Skyscanner, trip it, kiwi, hopper, etc)

Goodluck👍

Thank you very much

I am employed I actually submitted my employment offer initially

I did not include a cover
But am about to include it now, I have also gotten hotel reservations now but the problem is flight reservation, I have called almost all the agents I saw they said I have to book full flight

I am considering submitting the hotel reservations and cover letter then write them email regarding the flight reservation

I don’t know if that will work

How do we get the declaration, is it on the site or there is a template for it?

You dont need to pay for flight ticket, most embassies will tell you not to pay until you receive a visa.
What they usually want to see is the flight itinerary. Book a flight and select the pay later option. Print out the booking reservation and attach it to your application.

For cover letter, My wife is employed by an organization while I am self employed. We both sent in personal cover letters introducing ourselves, mentioning our reasons for wanting to visit Brazil and some of our vacation plans while we're there.

I know, the problem was most of them were not allowing me to download it or even send me the reservation as file or pdf format so i could not send it to someone to print

but thanks to you I just used Ethiopia airline and they sent me the reservation in pdf format, I was able to download it and use but then, they said it would be reserved for just 24 hrs I don't know if that is okay

though I have submitted it

The embassy doesn't expect you to pay for your ticket without visa.

Please help.
My wife applied since July, and we only got email to send updated ticket and hotel reservations in November.
How can we cancel the application so we can get the passport back? Its been over 6 months

Can someone living in Brazil apply on behalf of someone in Nigeria to help fasten the process?
