Thread: Best way to get a Brazilian Visa in a hurry?

I am cruising on the Star Princess on March 2 and have not gotten our Visas for Brazil. Any ideas about the fastest way to do that? Cost? Thanks!

Here is the link to the Brazilian Consulate in NY.Consulate General of Brazil in New York > Consular Services > Visas > Tourist Visa > If you read, you will see other locals if that consulate is not in your jurisdiction. There are services that do this as well. Do be sure that your passport is good for 6 months beyond your trip date and be sure that you have a Visa page that is totally blank. All pages in your passport are not Visa pages as I found out when I needed two blank Visa pages for a trip to South Africa. (I had to get a new passport - the last pages in your passport are NOT visa pages.)

Hope this helps.

I have always used Zierer Visa Service for my clients. That have never let me down.

I have included the link to their website.

Zierer Visa Service

They can help you with the requirements and obtaining the visas.

Hope this helps.

I'm wondering if this is a complicated process that one would need a company to provide help. Can someone who is basically organized do this on their own with a little research on the Bralizian consulant website? I'm thinking about people who would prefer to save some money and not pay for a service that's fairly easy.

I had clients do the RCCL cruise last Christmas even though they lived within driving distance to NYC they opted to use the service. The Brazilian visa is one that is harder to obtain than others. Yoiu can contact the service and find out the requirements and make your decision after speaking with them. I have attached a link to the Brazilian consulate in San Francisco to show you the requiements.

However, you must contact the consulate that is closest to you to obtain the visas. Please note the extra processing fee if you don't present the applications in person.

Hope this helps.
