REFUGEE STATUS OR HUMANITARIAN PROTECTION

In both cases, the procedure is free of charge and the application can be submitted online. Also, the immigrants will be allowed to work in Brazil.

The list of required documents and the procedure have been simplified to facilitate the entry of Ukrainians into Brazil.
