Hi, this is Diana Quintas, Partner at Fragomen in Brazil, the world’s leading provider of immigration services. This video is part of Fragomen’s Digital Nomad Visa series, exploring opportunities country by country.
Why Choose Brazil for Remote Work?
Brazil stands out as one of the most accessible destinations for digital nomads. The country requires a relatively low-income threshold to qualify for the visa, making it an attractive option for professionals seeking flexibility.
Here’s why Brazil is a great choice for remote workers:

- Family-Friendly Policies – Dependents can accompany visa holders without additional work restrictions.
- Strong Digital Nomad Infrastructure – Cities like João Pessoa and Jericoacoara are actively preparing to host digital professionals.
- Tourist-Friendly Application Process – The visa can be applied for either from abroad or after arriving in Brazil as a tourist.
