ESQUARE LEGAL · BRAZIL INVESTOR GUIDE
A path to Brazilian citizenship.
Explore Brazil’s investor residency routes—and understand what a future citizenship application would actually require.
For investors considering US$300,000 or more, with Esquare Legal’s Managing Partner based in São Paulo.
US$300,000 describes the investment budgets this service is designed for. It is not Brazil’s statutory minimum. Investment, residence and citizenship are separate decisions.
Before investing, understand the route.
- The investment: how business investment and qualifying property routes differ.
- The residence: the conditions for obtaining and maintaining the relevant status.
- The citizenship: qualifying residence, Portuguese and the separate naturalisation process.
- The practical plan: professional costs, family needs and the location and documentation of investment funds.
