Visa-Free Rules and Stay Extensions in Brazil: real experience from chats

Short answer
Russian citizens enjoy visa-free entry to Brazil for up to 90 days, with the possibility of extending this period for another 90 days by paying a 110 BRL fee. Travelers should carry proof of return travel and a passport valid for at least six months, although requirements for outbound tickets can vary by airline.

From real experience

For Russian citizens traveling to Brazil for tourism, a visa is generally not required for stays up to 90 days within a 180-day period (90+90 rule).
Proof of onward or return travel is typically required. If flying with airlines other than Turkish Airlines, a pre-booked hotel for the entire duration of the stay might not be mandatory. However, having a confirmed hotel booking for at least the initial part of the trip is advisable. Extensions or changes to longer stays, potentially for educational purposes like language courses, may require applying for specific immigration regularization documents, which can extend the legal stay by an additional 60+60 days.
