Getting a Visa for Brazil?

Question

I'm a resident of Atlanta, Georgia. I'm planning on going to Brazil in July, for about a week. I know how to get a passport, but, I just found out from my friend there that I need a visa. How do I go about doing that, and, how long would it take?

I would be registering in the middle of Febuary for both my passport and visa (i'm sure you can pay more to have it sooner, right?)

Please let me know :)

Answer 1

Go to http://www.brazilmiami.org/eng/index.php

Or contact them directly:
Consulate General of Brazil in Miami
80 SW 8th Street - Suite 2600
Miami, FL 33130
Tel: [phone] - Fax: [phone]
E-Mail: [e-mail]

Applicant must reside within the Consulate's jurisdiction when applying through an agent or third party.
Visa applications will be received from 9am to 11am only.
If approved, the visa will be ready for pick-up on the next business day, from 12:00 to 1:00 PM only.
Please note that the Consulate does not issue same day visas, unless in case of a documented medical emergency.

Visas by Mail (Application for Permanent Visas must be done in person)
When applying by mail, applicant must reside within the Consulate's jurisdiction. Please present proof of residence (driver's license).

Please allow 12 (twelve) business days for processing of visa application and return of passport, not including transit time. This processing time applies from the moment application is received at the Consulate.

The Consulate will receive correspondence sent by the U.S. Postal Service as well as all courier services (address the envelope to the attention of the Visa Section).

However, the Consulate will only return documents via the U.S. Postal Service: Priority or Express Mail. Applicants must therefore enclose a self-addressed stamped envelope for the return of their documents.

Incomplete or incorrect applications will be returned to sender within 5 business days.

The Consulate will not accept envelopes which contain more than one application. Such envelopes will be returned.

Answer 2

When I got my visa for Brazil, I decided to use a visa service. Since you live in Atlanta, you're not gonna want to travel to Miami just to do this visa so you have to do it by mail anyway. It's just easier to use a service. I used Capitol Visa and was happy with the service.
