Hi all,
My name is Imran and I am new to this forum.
I love Brazil and have traveled there 3 times this year and I want to go back.
I was hoping you could provide some advice/solution on my situation as I am reading a lot of conflicting information online and again this does not match with what I have heard from the Brazilian consulate in London. What are the rules and time limits on entering Brazil on a tourist visa?
I traveled to Brazil on the following dates this year:
7th February - 23rd February 2018
15th May - 31st May 2018
24th July - 25th September 2018
This equals to 98 days which is an overstay of 8 days which I wasn't aware of until I counted the days today. I left Brazil with no issues and I wasn't asked to sign any paperwork regarding the overstay and nothing was stamped in my passport mentioning an overstay.
I would like travel to Brazil a few times in 2019 and would like to stay for around 2 months +- each time but not exceeding 180 days in one year (as I believe this is the rule)
I would like to return to Brazil at the beginning of January 2019. Is this possible as I first entered Brazil on 7th February 2018? and how would I go about doing this? Would there be any issues if I entered before 7th February 2019?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Imran
