Eligibility for Turkish nationals

Turkish nationals can apply for the Brazil investor visa. There is no published nationality exclusion for Turkey on this route.

All capital must come from outside Brazil and be registered with the Central Bank of Brazil through authorised foreign exchange channels. Confirm the documentation rules with the official authority before transferring funds.

Routes

The most common route is the purchase of qualifying urban real estate with a registered deed. A lower property threshold applies in the North and Northeast regions. Business routes are also available, including investment in a Brazilian company or a smaller amount in innovative activity that creates local jobs. Rural land does not qualify for the real estate route.

Timeline

Permanent residency can be granted on approval, with a path toward citizenship after a qualifying period of residence. Confirm the current processing and residence rules with the official authority.

Costs

Indicative minimums are shown below in Brazilian reais. Legal, registration and government fees apply on top. Confirm each current figure with the official authority.
