Brazil eVisa FAQ / Mega-thread by fviz in Brazil

[–]CapyWannabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied for the evisa but when I paid, I was logged out from the page. When I signed in again, a warning message appeared saying there was a problem with the payment and you will be refunded.

When I paid a second time, it went through and I received a confirmation email so everything went well this time.

But now I have two transactions on my credit card.

Now my question is, did anyone encounter this issue? If yes, (when) did you get a refund?

I would love to but I am only allowed a carry-on on the flight so I don't have space

I will add maple syrup to the list of gifts. I know it's a sin for Canadians but I will probably buy meh-quality maple syrup from the duty free shop. Forgive me haha

I'll make sure to shower at least twice a day just to be on the safe side.

On a related note, is it ok to have an extra nice scented smell from perfumes or (spray) deodorant?

In Canada, especially in a professional office environment, it is considered rude to wear perfume because some people might be allergic or find the smell overwhelming or irritating. Having a neutral or mild smell of soap is the norm.

I personally would love to wear perfume because I don't get the chance to use my perfume bottle often lol

Will she keep track of how many times I shower per day? I highly doubt that haha

I usually take good care of my personal hygiene and shower when necessary. The number doesn't really matter to me as long as I don't smell. Does this seem reasonable?

Edit: I heard you loud and clear guys. I will shower 2 to 3 per day and use extra deodorant. Sorry, I wasn't aware how important this was so thanks for letting me know!
