Overview
Brazil Broadens Visitor Visa Rules to Allow Technical and Technology-Transfer Work Since 8 October 2025, Brazil began to allow foreign professionals to undertake specific technical tasks and technology-transfer activities under Visitor Visa status, signalling greater openness for short-term work and global mobility. Under the new framework, workers may carry out these activities without a Temporary Work Visa, provided their stay does not exceed 90 days, with the possibility of extension to 180 days, depending on nationality. Nevertheless, employers must remain attentive to compliance, as eligibility rules and permitted duration still vary according to the visitor's nationality. With legal assistance, companies can be guided through regulatory changes, ensuring strategic planning, operational efficiency, and full compliance. Before making any decision, seek guidance from an experienced immigration lawyer. The lawyer understands the importance of complying with regulations and helps you navigate the immigration process safely
