Brazil offers permanent residence to investors who place qualifying capital in the country, and Vietnamese nationals can apply on the same basis as other foreign applicants. This page explains the current position and points you to the official source.
Information, not advice. Figures are indicative and current as of June 2026. Always confirm the present rules with the official program authority and a licensed professional before you act.
Vietnamese nationals may apply for the Brazil investor route on the same basis as other foreign applicants. The route grants permanent residence, and Brazil sets out a separate path to citizenship after a period of residence that you should confirm in advance.
Applicants register the investment with the Brazilian Central Bank and meet the conditions set by the National Immigration Council. Background checks and proof of the lawful source of funds apply.
Two main routes are published. The first is a business investment into the share capital of a Brazilian company, with a lower threshold available for innovation or startup categories. The second is a real estate purchase, with a lower threshold in the north and northeast regions and rural land excluded.
The thresholds are set in Brazilian reais and are reviewed periodically by the authority. Treat any figure you see elsewhere as indicative and confirm the current amount and conditions with the official authority.
Processing covers registering the investment, forming or capitalising the company where relevant, and the residence application itself. Confirm the current processing time with the official authority.
The main cost is the qualifying investment. Company formation, government charges and independent professional fees apply on top. We do not name or recommend firms. Use Get Matched to compare vetted advisors, and ask for a written scope and fee before you engage anyone.
