Brazilian eVisas cannot be extended once they are issued.
What You Need to Know
A Brazilian eVisa is granted for a specific validity period (5 years for Canadian and Australian citizens, 10 years for US citizens) and allows stays of up to 90 days per visit. However, the individual stay period cannot be extended beyond what is authorized on entry. If you need to remain in Brazil longer than permitted, you must apply for a different visa type through the Brazilian Federal Police while in Brazil or through a Brazilian consulate or embassy before traveling.
Our Recommendation
If you know in advance that you may need a longer stay, check with the nearest Brazilian embassy or consulate about applying for a traditional visa that allows longer stays. If you are already in Brazil, contact the Brazilian Federal Police before your current authorized stay expires to explore your options.
A Quick Tip
Always confirm the duration of stay granted at the border when you arrive in Brazil, as immigration officers may limit your stay even if your eVisa validity is longer. Respecting these limits helps avoid penalties or future travel issues.
