Keeping in mind the rush of tourists ahead of the Rio Olympics, the Brazil government has announced a 90 day, non-extendable, unilateral visa waiver. The visa waiver is applicable for American, Australian, Canadian and Japanese nationals visiting the country between June 1 and Sept 18, 2016, exclusively for tourism purposes.
Such a waiver, according to the World Tourism Organisation, could increase the number of travellers from those countries to 20%, that is, around 75,000 international tourists and an input of around $80 million to the economy.
This visa will also be good for the Special Olympic Games. It will not be necessary to have a ticket for an official game to benefit from this waiver.
