Eligibility For Brazil Citizen

Effective 1 October 2019, Brazilian nationals wishing to visit New Zealand without a visa must obtain an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA New Zealand) prior to departure. New Zealand has also introduced another additional requirement known as the International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy NZ (IVL) which is also mandatory for some tourists from 1 October 2019.

The aim of NZ's eTA requirements is to improve national and cross-border security and make international travel smoother. Instead, IVL was introduced with the intention of protecting New Zealand's natural environment and infrastructure that visitors enjoy. The application process for NZeTA from Brazil is simple and quick and can be completed in just a few minutes from the comfort of the applicant's home or office.

Do Brazilian citizens need a visa exemption for New Zealand?

While this travel authorization is not a visa, as of 1 October 2019, the NZeTA is mandatory for citizens of Brazil and nationals of 59 other countries wishing to enter New Zealand for short periods of time and for tourism or business reasons. Brazilian citizens can now apply for their New Zealand travel services online using their passport. The NZeTA provides New Zealand authorities with a better understanding of the movement of visa-free travellers and helps prevent a wide range of border, international and immigrant crimes.

The New Zealand eTA for Brazilian citizens is valid for 2 years, supports multiple entries and allows stays of 90 consecutive days at a time. The fee (IVL) only has to be paid once during the 2-year validity of the eTA.
