Traveling to EU with a dog by flowtec9000
Dear all, now, this is a really serious issue for me. I have adopted a dog while living here in Brazil. Back then, I asked my veterinarian whether there will be any difficulties when returning with her to the EU. This veterinarian is, ...

Ok thanks a ton - do you have any idea which information, precisely, the chip contains? Does it say *when* it was implanted, or is it just the serial number? Because, in that case, I'd get her chipped and ask my vet to accordingly ... Read More

Export tax and taking money out of the country by flowtec9000
Dear all, maybe some of you have heard about the new law, in effect from January 1 2016, that any foreign transactions are now subject to taxation (25% or something...). Does anyone know whether this also applies if you are simply taking money out ...

Missed the deadline for applying for RNE... by flowtec9000
Ok so don't ask me how this happened (basically a misunderstanding about the process), BUT: I applied for a family reunion visa, which was accepted, but they required me to apply for an RNE within a maximum of 90 days from the time that the ...
![flowtec9000 flowtec9000](/images/avatars/default/man5.png)

Visas and illicit work
Just a purely hypothetical question: let's assume somebody who is clearly not me, nor somebody I know of, is living in Brazil on a visa that does not permit employment. As far as I'm aware, illegal work seems to be rather widespread here - ... Read More

Yes, we needed a criminal background check. But we were able to obtain it from the consulate, so we didn't have to go through this whole nonsensical "document legalized in the country of origin"-procedure. I'd recommend doing that. ... Read More
