Questions

What are the Brazil e-Visa photo requirements?

VFS Global's sample photo for the Brazil e-Visa asks for a color photo on a white background, 3.5 × 4.5 cm (413 × 531 pixels), as a JPEG of up to 2 MB. No glasses, no smiling or showing teeth, no headgear, hair tied back so your ears show, some space above your head, and your shoulders in the picture.

What size is the Brazil visa photo?

3.5 × 4.5 cm, which is 413 × 531 pixels for the upload. It is taller than it is wide, so a square 2 × 2 U.S. passport photo is the wrong shape. Our file is exactly 413 × 531.

Do Americans need a visa for Brazil?

Yes. Brazil brought back the visa requirement for U.S. citizens on April 10, 2025. Tourists apply for the e-Visa online through VFS Global, and the photo is one of the uploads.

Can I wear glasses in my Brazil visa photo?

No. The sample says no spectacles. Take them off before the photo: our check can't see glasses yet.

Can I smile in my Brazil visa photo?

No. The sample says no smiling or showing teeth. Keep a neutral face with your mouth closed.

My photo upload isn't working. What should I check?

Use the JPEG file we give you, not a screenshot of it or a photo of a print. It is 413 × 531 and well under 2 MB. If the form still refuses it, try another browser: the file itself meets the size the sample gives.

Do you edit or retouch my photo?

No. The U.S. Department of State says not to change your photo using computer software, phone apps or filters. We only check your photo and crop it to the official size. We never smooth skin, change the background or alter your face.

Is my photo uploaded anywhere?

No. Your photo is checked and prepared on your own phone or computer. It is never uploaded to our servers.
