Visa & Onward Ticket Requirements for Brazil
Brazil requires visitors to present proof of return or onward travel as a condition of entry. Airlines operating flights to Brazil will check for a return ticket at the departure gate, and passengers without one may be denied boarding. Upon arrival, Federal Police immigration officers can request to see your flight itinerary. This applies to both visa holders and visa-exempt nationals. The requirement is actively enforced, especially at major international airports like Sao Paulo-Guarulhos and Rio de Janeiro-Galeao. Travelers on a 90-day visa exemption should have a ticket showing departure within that window.
