Planning a trip to Brazil? Here’s everything you need to know for a smooth and enjoyable experience!

🛂 Entry Requirements & Visas
🔹 Visa: Many European travelers (including from the Schengen Area, UK, and Ireland) do not need a visa for stays of up to 90 days.
🔹 Passport: Must be valid for at least six months beyond your departure date.
🔹 Proof of Return Ticket: You may be asked to show proof of onward or return travel.
🔹 Vaccination Requirement: While yellow fever vaccination is not mandatory, it is highly recommended if you plan to visit the Amazon region or rural areas.

✈️ Flights & Airports
🔹 Major international airports:

São Paulo (GRU) – Guarulhos International Airport
Rio de Janeiro (GIG) – Galeão International Airport
Brasília (BSB) – Juscelino Kubitschek Airport
🔹 Direct flights from major European cities (Lisbon, Madrid, Paris, Frankfurt, London) are available.
💰 Currency & Payments
🔹 Brazilian Real (BRL) is the local currency. 1 EUR ≈ 5–6 BRL (exchange rates vary).
🔹 Credit & debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) are widely accepted, but carry some cash for small vendors and rural areas.
🔹 ATMs (Caixa, Banco do Brasil, Bradesco, Itaú) are available, but some may charge high withdrawal fees.

📞 Connectivity & SIM Cards
🔹 European SIMs may have expensive roaming fees—consider buying a local SIM card from Claro, Vivo, TIM, or Oi.
🔹 eSIM options (Airalo, Holafly) are also available for prepaid data plans.
🔹 Free Wi-Fi is common in hotels, cafes, and shopping malls but can be slow in public areas.

🚗 Transportation & Driving
🔹 Public transport: Metro systems in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Brasília are efficient.
🔹 Taxis & Ride-sharing: Uber, 99, and Cabify are popular and safer than hailing a taxi on the street.
🔹 Car rental: European driving licenses are accepted for short-term stays, but an International Driving Permit (IDP) is recommended.
🔹 Domestic flights: Brazil is vast, and flying is often the best option for long distances between cities.

⏰ Time Zones
🔹 Brazil has four time zones:

Brasília Time (BRT, UTC -3) – Most of Brazil, including São Paulo & Rio de Janeiro.
Amazon Time (AMT, UTC -4) – Includes Manaus.
Acre Time (ACT, UTC -5) – Includes the far-western region.
🌡️ Weather & Packing Tips
🔹 Tropical & diverse climate – Pack according to the region:

Amazon & North: Hot and humid, frequent rain.
Northeast (Salvador, Recife): Warm and sunny year-round.
Rio & São Paulo: Mild winters, hot summers.
South (Florianópolis, Porto Alegre): Cooler winters with occasional cold spells.
🔹 Health & Travel Insurance
✅ Medical care can be expensive in private hospitals—travel insurance with health coverage is highly recommended.
✅ Mosquito-borne diseases (Dengue, Zika, Chikungunya) are present—use repellent and wear light, long-sleeved clothing.
✅ Tap water is NOT recommended for drinking—buy bottled water.

🚨 Safety & Emergency Numbers
📞 Emergency Number (Police, Fire, Ambulance): 190
📞 Tourist Police (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro): +55 21 2332-2924
📞 EU Embassies: Check your country’s embassy in Brasília, São Paulo, or Rio de Janeiro before traveling.

🔹 Cultural & Practical Tips
✔ Portuguese is the official language—English is not widely spoken outside major cities.
✔ Avoid flashing valuables in public—petty theft can be an issue in crowded areas.
✔ Be cautious in Rio de Janeiro & São Paulo—stick to tourist areas and avoid walking alone at night.
✔ Tipping: Not mandatory, but 10% service charge is usually included in restaurant bills.

📩 Plan ahead and enjoy your trip to Brazil!
