📢 What people say about us?

10 years in. The trust our clients place in us grows every year.

🟣 Avy came to us for his mom’s retirement visa in Brazil. The road wasn’t simple — it never is. But we love challenges and support our clients with strategy and a human touch.

Here’s what he shared after working with IC Brazil:

“This is one of those very rare cases in which you can just rely on the firm knowing they will do everything they can to help you. They’ve helped me get an elder visa. I presented them with several challenges on the way, and they always had a way to find a solution. Karina is professional, communicative, positive, and a doer. I genuinely cannot stress how happy I’ve been with their work!”

🌍 Digital Nomad Visa Brazil 2026: Two Rule Changes Most Remote Workers Don’t Know About

updated its Digital Nomad Visa framework. Here’s what actually changed and what it means for remote professionals targeting Brazil.

🟣 Government-system signatures are now mandatory
The new Labor Coordination requires that all declarations and forms related to the Digital Nomad Visa process be signed through the official government system. This is a compliance update that affects how applications are submitted and processed and it has been in effect since 2026.
🟣 Unlimited consecutive renewals, the rule that changed everything
Under the original 2021 framework, Brazil’s remote work visa could only be renewed twice consecutively. That cap is gone.
The 2026 coordination now allows unlimited consecutive renewals, meaning remote professionals can keep renewing their Digital Nomad Visa in Brazil year after year, with no cap on the number of renewal periods.

For independent contractors, freelancers, and location-independent professionals who want Brazil as a long-term base, this changes the calculation entirely.

Brazil’s digital nomad visa framework is maturing. Compliance requirements are tightening. And the pathway for remote professionals who want to stay long-term just became significantly clearer.
Structure it correctly from the start.

🇧🇷 Brazil just released its most comprehensive immigration data of the year.
IC Brasil was in the room.

Our Director Karina Chuquimia was representing Immigration Consulting Brasil at the launch of two landmark publications at the Ministério da Justiça
in Brasília: the 12th Annual Report of Observatório das Migrações Internacionais ( Brazil’s Official International Migration Observatory and the report on Brazil’s National Migration, Refugee and Statelessness Policy, including perspectives on the Global Refugee Forum and the International Migration Review Forum.

Both were presented alongside government authorities and leading specialists in immigration law and global mobility.

What makes these spaces significant is not only the data they produce, it is the model they represent: structured dialogue between policymakers, migration experts, and migrant community representatives, grounded in evidence and built for impact. continues to set the standard for how immigration data in should be gathered, interpreted, and translated into policy.

For Immigration Consulting Brasil, being present at these moments is not circumstantial. It is part of how we work. Understanding Brazil’s regulatory environment at its source, not through intermediaries, is what allows us to provide our clients with immigration strategy that is current, precise, and actionable.

Congratulations to Professor Leonardo and the entire OBMigra team.

🇧🇷 Brazil Real Estate Investor Visa 2026:
Residency from USD $140,000 While European Golden Visas Close

Portugal restricted it. Spain eliminated it. Greece tightened it.
The Golden Visa era in Europe is over.

And most investors still haven’t looked at what Brazil has been offering this entire time.

🟣 Brazil’s VIPER Visa , the country’s official residency-by-real-estate-investment program starts at BRL 700,000 (~USD $140,000) for properties in the North and Northeast regions, and BRL 1,000,000 (~USD $200,000) elsewhere. Thresholds fixed by federal regulation. Stable.

What the program offers:
🟣Onlone Process
🟣Co-ownership of the qualifying property is permitted. Path to citizenship: 4 years after permanent residency is granted. And for context — the US EB-5 investor visa starts at USD $800,000.
🟣 This isn’t a workaround. It’s a federally regulated pathway backed by Lei 13.445/2017, RN 36/2018, CNIG MJSP nº 46/2021, and Resolução CNIG/MJSP nº 49/2024 , the same legal framework governing all immigration in Brazil.

The VIPER Visa is objectively underpriced relative to every
comparable program on the market right now.

Wealth managers, legal offices, and real estate advisors with international clients should be having this conversation. The legal structure is there. The investment threshold is competitive.

The citizenship timeline is clear.
The only variable is ex*****on and who structures it correctly from day one.

Why Corporate Immigration to Brazil Is Accelerating & What It Means for Global Mobility Teams

Brazil is the 9th largest economy in the world — and global companies are finally treating it that way. 🌎
The numbers are hard to ignore:

🟣 GDP of USD 2.1 trillion — ahead of Canada, South Korea, and Australia

🟣 215M population — the deepest talent pool in Latin America

🟣 São Paulo within 2 hours of the US East Coast real-time collaboration, no late nights

🟣 60%+ of LATAM GDP sits in Brazil and Mexico

Corporate immigration to Brazil has gone from exception to strategic priority. US startups building engineering hubs in São Paulo. European executives taking LATAM P&L. Multinationals relocating regional directors.

This is not about the beaches. This is global mobility as a business decision — made at board level, executed with legal precision.

At Immigration Consulting Brasil we have structured full LATAM headquarters relocations across technology, financial services, Startups and energy.

The companies moving now will have a structural advantage over those who wait.

🇧🇷 PIX is now fully integrated into Brazil’s immigration system.

📢 The last missing part was the National Immigration Council (CNIg), where payments were still restricted to Banco do Brasil, while Federal Police processes had already moved to PIX.

That gap is now closed.

📍 From today, all immigration-related payments can be made through PagTesouro using PIX and also credit card 💳, bringing more flexibility and modernization to the system.

🟣 faster payments
🟣 fewer errors
🟣 more efficient processes

This is a small operational change, but a meaningful shift in how immigration works in Brazil 🇧🇷

🌎 At Immigration Consulting Brazil, this directly impacts how we manage and guide our clients through immigration processes, ensuring faster and more reliable ex*****on.
