- 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.
