requirements to obtain visas are specific to the type of visa a traveler intends to receive, and the country of citizenship of the traveler.

broadly speaking, any visa to enter Brazilian territory has basic requirements that must be met by all applicants.

these requirements are generally expected to be met also by travelers who enter brazil on a visa waiver, such as visitors citizens of the european union.

while some of the information may or may not be asked for at the time of visa application, it still can be requested at the time of arrival to brazil by the federal police, the institution in charge of checking documents and allowing entrance of foreigners into the country.
