Well... I'm never visiting Brazil, apparently.
The USA requires much more of Brazilians visiting the US. This is simple reciprocity.
These types of rules are typically to deter people trying to immigrate illegally. I know that's a hotbutton issue in the US, but does Brazil have to deal with a lot of people from the US, Canada, and Australia trying to illegally immigrate? Or is this purely out of spite because those countries treat Brazilians that way?
Yeah, countries often do reciprocal requirements to discourage either side from implementing them.
I understand the reciprocity.
Thing is, this was not okay when the US did it and it’s still not okay. Shame to see other countries learning the wrong lessons from the US’s mistakes.
That's not really my doing, dude. I don't have a say in it. Maybe neither country should make it hard for people to go for a vacation there?
I don't know about visitors, but I think that a number of countries require you to show that you can financially support yourself if you're in the country for the long run and not working.
In the long run, maybe. But this is for travelers, not residents.
But most people trying to illegally immigrate come in on a travel visa, and then they just don't leave. It's the easiest way.
Oh well?
