Is true that brasilian will not need visa for visite usa ?

Curious1usa

No, sorry, that is not true. Currently, 27 countries participate in the US Visa Waiver Program, and Brasil is not one of those coutries. You will need a visa.

Sorry, but Brazilians still need visas to visit the United States.

The "L" Word

No, all Brazilians need visas for now. However, Brazil is a road map candidate for the U.S. Visa Waiver Program. This program allows citizens of certain countries to visit the U.S. without a visa for tourist stays of 90 days. The U.S. Senate recently passed Secure Travel and Counterterrorism Partnership Act which will allow 13 countries: Argentina, Brazil, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Greece, Israel, Malta, Slovakia, South Korea, Taiwan and Uruguay, to qualify for the Visa Waiver Program if their vsa refusal rate is 10% or less. Presently nations have to have a 3% refusal rate to qualify for the program.

Changes to the VWP are highly unlikely to change until after the next president is elected. So far the only nations whose citizens can enter the U.S. without a visa are:

Andorra
Australia
Austria
Belgium
Brunei
Canada
Denmark
Finland
France
Germany
Iceland
Ireland
Italy
Japan
Liechtenstein
Luxembourg
Marshall Islands
(Republic of) Micronesia
Monaco
Netherlands
New Zealand
Norway
Palau
Portugal
San Marino
Singapore
Slovenia
Spain
Sweden
Switzerland
United Kingdom (including residents of Bermuda)

These nations are either part of the VWP, or have signed treaties with the United States granting them special admission into the USA.
