📣 Conseils aux voyageurs

Brazil is a geographically diverse South American country known for its rich culture, blending indigenous, African, and European influences. Visitors can experience major cities, beaches, the Amazon rainforest, and Iguazu Falls.

• Public interactions are often personal and expressive; engaging in conversation with strangers is normal.
• Cultural norms require sensitivity regarding public affection and political discussions.
• Punctuality is expected for structured activities (e.g., work, flights), but timing for social events may be flexible.
• Racism is a serious offense; all forms of racial commentary or action should be avoided.
• Certain political and historical topics are considered sensitive due to the country's history.
• Respectful conduct is mandatory, as Brazilian law criminalizes religious intolerance.
• Be prepared for direct and tactile interactions; cheek-kissing is common upon greeting (number varies by city). While Brazilians are generally physically close, arrive punctually for formal activities, but expect social contacts to be slightly late.
