From September 30, 2023, the Government of Japan will introduce Visa Waiver Measure for nationals of the Federative Republic of Brazil in possession of ordinary IC passport who wish to enter Japan for a period not exceeding consecutive 90 days for short-term stay.

Mr. Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, President of the Federative Republic of Brazil held in May 20, 2023.
The Government of Brazil will continue visa waiver measure for Japanese nationals so that Japanese and Brazilian citizens will be able to visit mutually without obtaining visas from September 30, 2023.
In celebration of 115th anniversary of Japanese immigration to Brazil, the Visa Waiver Measure by both Japan and Brazil will contribute to further development of human, cultural and business exchange as well as revitalization of tourism.
