STEP 2: Wait for the confirmation email.

Website: http://eresp.itamaraty.gov.br/pt-br/assistencia_consular.xml
What should you do if you lose your passport containing your brazilian visa while I am in Brazil?
If your passport is lost or stolen, you should:
(1) report it to the local police station and get a police report (“boletim de ocorrência”);
(2) contact the Embassy/Consulate and apply for a new passport or travel document.
Visa: see question “7. Problems with your visa or visa application form?”
- Once you know your arrival date and full address in Brazil, you can start the online visa registration process.
- Bring all the copies of your documents and photos from your country. This may speed up the initial arrangements.
Your visa is a document that allows you to enter the country, i.e., the expiration date shown on your visa does not reflect how long you are authorized to stay within Brazil. The permitted stay in Brazil is determined by the Federal Police upon registration (RNM). So if your RNM is about to expire, you must extend your stay with the Federal Police (see how in the next question).
It is essential that you always have a valid residence permit during your stay in Brazil. As a rule this permit can be extended as long as your purpose of stay is still valid.
