About the Brazil passport
At #10 globally out of 200 ranked passports, the Brazil passport puts holders ahead of 95% of the world. Alongside Monaco and Argentina, it sits among the world's strongest travel documents. Brazil citizenship is inheritable across generations, meaning children born to Brazil citizens abroad may be eligible to claim citizenship by descent.
Passport context
Brazil applies a top marginal income tax rate of 27% and a capital gains tax rate of 15 to 22.5%. The country operates a standard mid tax regime.
Brazil is a member of MERCOSUR, granting facilitated residency rights across South American member states.
