Mexico's new electronic visa for Brazilian tourists is now available

Brazilian nationals traveling by air can apply online for a single-entry visa valid for up to 180 days

Brazilian nationals can now apply for Mexico's new electronic visa for tourist travel. The eVisa became available on February 5, 2026, giving Brazilians a streamlined option to enter Mexico by air without visiting a consulate.

The Mexican government published the decree establishing the eVisa in the Diario Oficial de la Federación on July 25, 2025. The visa applies to Brazilian visitors entering Mexico exclusively by air under the immigration status of visitor without permission to engage in remunerated activities.

How the Mexico eVisa works for Brazilians

The electronic visa is valid for up to 180 calendar days and permits a single entry into Mexico. Applicants must pay the visa fee online and, if approved, either print the visa or download it to an electronic device.

Travelers must present the eVisa to airline personnel and Mexican immigration authorities upon arrival.

What if the eVisa application is denied?

If an electronic visa application is not approved, Brazilians can request a traditional stamped visa at the Mexican consulate nearest to their place of residence in Brazil. If approved and all requirements are met, the visa will be attached to the applicant's passport.

Background

The eVisa follows a series of regulatory changes affecting Brazilian travelers to Mexico. A decree published in November 2021 and another in August 2022 had established temporary visa requirements for Brazilian nationals. The new eVisa option aims to facilitate movement between the two countries while maintaining immigration controls.
