Temporary vehicle import to Brazil
A visa and a vehicle are different law: the person and the car are given their terms by different authorities, and those terms need not match.
- Maximum term
- 730
- How the term is counted
- together with the driver’s stay
- Carnet de Passages
- Not required
- Extension
- Possible
For a foreign tourist’s private vehicle, the temporary import period is the same as the tourist’s authorized stay in Brazil, but Receita Federal allows extensions of the vehicle’s regime up to a total of 2 years when the tourist is temporarily absent from Brazil; there is no separate shorter limit by vehicle type.
The period of validity of the Regime [...] shall be: a) the same period granted to the foreign tourist when the vehicle is intended for their use. [...] *the period of stay may be extended for up to 2 (two) years in total, counted from the date of admission*
