Let's compare visa and immigration procedures in Brazil and Colombia.
I'd rather wrestle an alligator, but let's tackle this visa vortex.
In Brazil, many nationalities enjoy visa-free tourism for up to 90 days. However, longer stays or work require a more complex process.
A work visa in Brazil is challenging; it often necessitates sponsorship from a Brazilian company that can prove a local couldn't fill the role.
Brazil is simplifying things for digital nomads, though. Now, let's look at Colombia. Many nationalities also receive visa-free entry for tourism.
Colombia has been welcoming tourists and remote workers. Their digital nomad visa allows stays of up to two years, given income requirements are met.
Colombia's process is generally considered more transparent than Brazil's.
Colombia actively attracts foreign investment and talent, reflected in its visa policies.
Residency in Brazil may require substantial investment, a Brazilian spouse or child. It's a lengthy process involving numerous notarized documents and visits to the Federal Police.
Colombian residency can be obtained after holding specific visas for a set period, through investment, or by demonstrating sufficient pension income.
Both countries require background checks and proof of funds. Thorough preparation is key.
A translator and lawyer might be beneficial. Immigration processes in any country can be demanding.
Colombia is generally easier regarding visas and residency, but Brazil is improving.
