Brazil is preparing to waive visa requirements for Chinese citizens travelling for tourism and business, local media reported on Wednesday citing government sources, in a move that would mark a significant shift in policy and deepen ties with its largest trading partner.<\/p>\n

According to local newspaper Valor Economico, the decision reflects a growing view within President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva\u2019s government that easing entry rules would boost tourism, trade and investment, outweighing long-standing concerns about migration risks. China is Brazil\u2019s largest commercial partner and one of the fastest-growing sources of foreign visitors, with more than 76,000 visitors just in 2024.<\/p>\n

The Brazilian Ministry of Foreign Affairs could not be immediately reached for a comment.<\/p>\n

If confirmed, Brazil would become only the third country in South America to offer full visa-free entry to Chinese nationals for short stays. At present, only Ecuador and Suriname allow Chinese citizens to enter without a visa for tourism or business.<\/p>\n
