The Brazilian consulates have introduced a web-based visa application form. To fill in the on-line form select "Visa Request" and follow the steps. Every question must be answered. Print a copy of the completed form, and include it with the materials sent to TDS for processing. The Washington DC consulate will only accept web-based application forms. No other forms will be accepted. Please Complete and sign One application. Signature must be within the Rectangle on the application form, NOT below the Rectangle. The Brazilian visa application must be submitted within one month of completion or it will expire. Please send to TDS within 30 days of completing the application online.

You must complete the Online Order Form.

The order form gives TDS your name, address, shipping information and payment method. Multiple applicants can be entered using one order form. You only need to complete one TDS order form per request. Please print two copies of the confirmation page. Include one copy with the documents you ship to TDS and keep one copy for your records.

While completing the online order form in this step, you will be asked how you want to pay TDS fees. You may pay our fees online with a credit card or enclose a personal or business check or money order.
