Trying to navigate the new Brazilian e-visa website is an almost impossible nightmare. Adding a 12 hour time limit to add additional documents (after the fact, and on different emails) is very stressful, especially on a weekend (when one doesn't usually attend to such things). Saying that you will confiscate the more than $160 US already paid if you do not do (or are able to do) what they demand reeks of extortion and/or outright theft! I have contacted the Brazilian Embassy in Ottawa to complain as the website complaint form doesn't work (won't load). One wonders if travelers should be forewarned to avoid transiting in Brazilian airports. The new requirement starts Jan.10,2024. I wish I knew, beforehand, I would have booked a different flight.
