Visa Conditions
- It is very important that you read the instruction sheet carefully. Please ensure you send us visa documents before the due date. If you believe your visa application may be rejected, then contact the Visa Department.
- The Brazilian Consulate is strict about the presentation of applications. Including, but not limited to your passport validity or photo, if any documentation or material are incorrect then the consulate will reject the application. In this case, the customer will incur any urgent processing fees or tour cancellation costs. Wendy Wu Tours cannot accept responsibility for any failure in this respect.
- Wendy Wu Tours has no control over Consular decisions to issue visas. Once your application is submitted, the Consulate may require you to pay additional fees or provide further documents, information, and/or material. In some cases, the Consulate will require the applicant to submit their passport and visa application forms in person.
- A passport with a minimum of six months validity is required for customers traveling to all countries in our programme. Visa fees are included for Australian passport holders in all fully inclusive group tours. Non-Australian passport holders will incur additional fees. In some cases, we may not be able to process your visa and you may be required to present in person at the local embassy or consulate.
- Passport and visa applications are due into Wendy Wu Tours no later than 60 days prior to departure. Please notify your travel agent or Wendy Wu Tours if you cannot make the deadline or choose to arrange your own visas.
- Passports and visa applications will generally not be accepted within 30 days prior to departure.
- Unless otherwise requested, your e-visa will be returned with final documentation approximately 2 – 3 weeks prior to your departure date.
