Visa requirements

The Mercosur member states of Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay, together with most other South American countries do not even require a Brazilian passport; a national or state-issued Brazilian identity card is enough for entry into all Mercosur member and associate states.
Nevertheless, the identity card must be in good condition, must not have expired, and the holder must be clearly recognizable in the photograph.
Brazilians within Mercosur have unlimited access to any of the full members and associated members with the right to residence and work, with no requirement other than nationality. Citizens of these nine countries may apply for the grant of "temporary residence" for up to two years in another country of the bloc. Then, they may apply for "permanent residence" just before the term of their "temporary residence" expires.
Brazilians may request lawful permanent resident status in Argentina and Uruguay at any time. No prior temporary resident status needed.
