123 Brazil Visa Service

I needed a series of miracles to come to play in order for my visa to come through on time. Anthony helped bring this challenge to reality. I actually received my visa 50 minutes before boarding my flight. Whenever I thought it was impossible, Anthony reassured me that it would. He is a man of his word. Thanks and I appreciate you!

They get the job done! My family and I (including my 4 month old baby) all needed visas for a trip to Rio we had already booked. By the time we got my baby’s passport we couldn’t get an appointment at the consulate for a date before we were scheduled to leave. Thank goodness for Anthony at 123 Brazil Visa — he was able to get us the visas in time for trip — we would haven’t been able to go otherwise — THANK YOU!
Anthony let us know exactly what we needed, how much it would cost and the timing up front. Then he kept us posted up until we received the visas. He answered all our questions promptly and thoroughly which we appreciated given the time crunch we were under.
We would 100% recommend 123 Brazil Visa if you need to get your visa in a hurry. They do a great job!

Quick and convenient service! I was in a serious jam and had to get a visa for my trip to Brazil in less than two weeks and Anthony took care of everything just in time for my trip. Excellent service especially if you’re in a desperate situation, I’m extremely happy with the process and result

I totally panicked a couple of days ago when I realized that I had neglected to get visas for our upcoming trip to Brazil. The consulate didn’t have any available appointments for several weeks and I couldn’t get a response to any of my plaintive emails. I called Anthony and he reassured me that he could get me the visas before our trip. But, even more awesome, he advised me to hold tight and keep checking the consulate’s website for appointment cancellations. I followed Anthony’s advice and was able to secure an appointment. I didn’t end up needing to use Anthony’s services, by I really appreciate his honesty and helpfulness despite the fact that I didn’t pay him a dime. I will definitely use his services in the future should the need arise.

Kinda of a spur of the moment trip but the Brazilian consulate was booked to the gills. Frustrated I called Anthony at 123 Brazil Visa. He worked his magic and I got it in about 4 business days. Great service. I highly recommend them if you’re in a jam.

I am Brazilian and I am traveling to Brazil with a friend and I realized that he needs a visa and the Brazilian consulate in Los Angeles only had appointment next year the end of January and we are traveling January 13^th so I tried to find a good company to get a visa. I texted Anthony and he replied right away with all the information I needed and make an appointment and my friend was very worried because he was also traveling to a different country in 7 days. But Anthony got everything done in about 5 days we had the visa and we are ready to travel!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Plus they are In the same building as the Brazilian consulate!

Wanted to use them because of all the great reviews. Called them several times and left a message and no one returned the call. Also, text message them with nothing in return. All within business hours.

Absolutely amazing service!!! I got offered a last minute trip to Brazil. All the visa service providers said that there was no way I could get my visa issued in time with the holidays coming up. I called 123 Brazil Visa and spoke with Anthony. He assured me he could have my visa issued and back to me in 3 – 5 days. He got my visa issued and back in 2 days! Amazing service and a really nice guy! Highly recommended!

My husband and I booked a trip to Rio and started looking into the Brazil Visa requirements a couple weeks before the trip, I found that the Consulate only had a couple appointments a day and they were booked for 3 weeks. We did some research and found out Anthony could help us with this emergency, he was able to expedite the visa process for a fee, and rush us the visa in only 3 business days by NY. I would recommend him to anybody in that same situation :)

Delivered the visa w/​in 3 – 5 days as promised. Can’t ask for more!

This is the «go to» business for expediting visas to Brazil. I am going to Abadiania Brazil to experience the healing of John of God. I have had many miracles manifest to make this trip possible and Anthony at 123 Brazil Visa Service is certainly one of them.
Booking a visa appointment at the Brazil Consulate in time for my visit was not possible a month out. I applied for a medical exception and that was delayed. I called several visa service companies and none could turn a visa around for a month or more — my flight leaves in 12 days.
I am so grateful to Anthony for his cool, calm, professional customer service and fast 3 — 5 business day turnaround. He stayed in communication with me advising me of the status and gave me instant peace of mind. I received my visa in 3 days. 123 Brazil Visa Service was the answer to my prayers — you can trust that they will make a way when there appears to be no way.

This was an excellent experience with great customer service. I was crunched for time to get my travel visa to Brazil & was not sure how or what service to use to handle my rush request. I decided to use 123 Brazil Visa and do not regret a thing! Anthony was the liaison I was in contact with & he was attentive to any requests I had. All in all he got it done in three business days! No other service I contacted could do this! It was amazing and relieved a lot of the stress when planning a trip to another country.

I went to brazil in September, 2013. I had my visa in about 10 days. Dude, was totally cool.

I needed a quick turnaround on a US Passport renewal (NOTHING TO DO WITH BRAZIL) for a trip with a departure in a week and Anthony took care of me wonderfully! I went to his office, had my photo taken, he worked out my different options, and the PRICE was the BEST I’ve EVER heard of or researched. He even delivered the passport to me at home!
1 stop awesome shop.
Fantastic and thorough communicator too via text and email.
Super honest.
Best price.
Long story short, I’d give 1,000 gold stars if possible!
Anthony & 123 Brazil Visa are THE BEST!

GREAT experience! My husband and I were getting ready to go to Brazil and needed to get our visas. We weren’t sure how long the process was going to take, but we wanted to get on it, sooner rather than later. I suggest you do the same when applying for your visa, that way you save yourself any extra rush expenses. We were actually going to go through the Brazilian consulate, but we heard horror stories about the customer service and honestly, we just didn’t want to deal with it. I went online to look for some sort of service that handled visas and 123 Brazil Visa service popped up in LA! I read the reviews and they were GREAT, so that sold me. I told my husband we should use this service and save ourselves the headache of dealing with the consulate. It was the BEST decision we could’ve made!
We went to the office in the beginning of December so that we could give ourselves enough time before our trip in February. I wasn’t sure if this office would be inundated with visa requests due to Carnival happening in the same month as our trip. When we met Anthony he was so nice and reassured us that we had plenty of time to obtain our visas. He walked us through the process, and answered all our questions. I actually had to call him back a couple of times that day we saw him because I had questions pertaining to our visa application. He was readily available and very patient. I can’t say enough about how helpful he was in this process. We felt comfortable and safe that this was a completely legit visa service. Anthony told us we would receive our visas in about 3 weeks (which at that time was the end of December). Our visas ended up being ready within 2 weeks! AMAZING! We can’t thank him enough for taking the worry out of the equation. If you need a visa for Brazil, THIS IS THE GUY to take care of it for you. I actually ended up sending 2 of my friends there just a week ago and he helped them as well. They needed their visas expedited due to the date of their departure, and he made it happen for them with ease. They too, are so happy with their experience with Anthony!
We had NO problem paying a little extra for a headache free process. TRUST ME, it’s worth EVERY penny. Thank you Anthony!

Great service. My cousin and I applied for visas for our trip this summer and mailed in our application to Anthony. We live in Hawai’i and the closest consulate is in L.A. We have relatives in L.A. but it just seemed more logical to go with a visa processing company, for our own ease and to not intrude on the busy schedules of our family.
Although the communication was not very steady in the beginning, once I submitted a form on their website a month later to see where we were in the process, I got a response within a couple hours that they were in the mail back to us (we received it the day after!).
The turn over time was excellent, as we mailed our materials to Anthony in mid January and received them exactly a month later. I was actually expecting it to take a little longer, as I know that visa processing is backed up due to the World Cup coming up this summer.
Thank you to Anthony and his team for helping us with our visas. I would recommend this service to those who do not live near a Brazilian consulate. Much appreciated!

Let’s be honest, handing your passport over to a stranger can be nerve-​racking, but when we were short on time and needed our visas expedited in time for our trip we reached out to Anthony at 123 Brazil Visa. He was extremely helpful providing detailed information and even offered to let us drop off/​pick up in person to cut down on processing time. Our visas arrived when he said they would and we spent an unforgettable NYE in Brazil. :)
We had heard horror stories about the Brazilian consulate when you are short on time and would highly recommend paying a little extra for the peace of mind Anthony provides. Thanks!

I want to preface this review by mentioning my personal situation, as it is probably different from most people seeking this type of visa services– I am an American citizen living Argentina, I was seeking to obtain my Brazilian tourist visa on a trip home for the holidays. Although you can obtain a Brazilian tourist visa from Argentina, it is only good for 1 visit lasting up to 90 days, where as if done from the consulate in the US it is good for multiple entries over the course of 10 years (and at the same cost).
Because I was coming to the US for only about a month, and over the holiday season I knew this would be difficult, so I began planning early. I began researching and contacting different visa services companies. Other companies had told me that they wouldn’t be able to help in the timeframe that I had specified. I turned to Unilocal,which is where I found great reviews for Anthony and 123 Brazil visa, which claimed to have visas for tourist and business processed in a short as a few days. After initially contacting him months ahead of time, he responded with a short email assuring me he was confident he could arrange for the visa within the timeframe I had specified. I decided to rol the dice and go with Anthony, which ended up being a bad wager!
As soon as I came into the US I sent all of my paperwork, money order, and passport into Anthony immediately, with plenty of time for the visa to be processed before I had to leave the country, or so I thought. When FedEx had notified me via email that my information had been delivered, Anthony did not. As someone who lives and works in a foreign country it is very scary to let your passport go even for a minute, as it is my lifeline, but not to acknowledge when customers’ passports had been received seems very unprofessional to me. I emailed to ask if my passport had been received and I received no response, only by phone was I able to get a response from him that indeed it had been received.
During the whole process this type of unprofessionalism was all too common. I had to email, call, and followup very routinely myself, as Anthony and his team almost never willingly offered information on the status of my visa. When I had called Anthony on one such occasion he had informed me of some bad news– the consulate had given a return date of processing my visa for 1 week after my scheduled flight to leave the country. I asked if we had any other options at this point, to which I received avery interesting answer. The best way, he told me, was to offer a sign of «appreciation» in the form of gift cards in hopes that this would grease the wheels at the consulate– essentially this was a bribe.
Living and working in South America I know that this type of action in exchange for faster service through bureaucratic institutions is common practice, but it surprised me that the office of a consulate on American soil would function in the same way. Although this seemed strange. I thought that if a company who works in this type of service would recommend this, it was the best course of action– I authorized Anthony to charge my credit card to deliver the visa officers their signs of «appreciation».
Unfortunately not even the bribe was effective in having my visa furnished any faster. I was forced to change my flight and await for my visa to finish being processed on the original date offered by the consulate. I understand that Anthony and his team were not able to control the ongoings of the consulate, however I was personally assured by Anthony that he could get the visa in the amount of time I needed and he failed to due so. Not only that, but he was unprofessional and withholding of information that was very important to me about the time it would take for my visa to process.
Did Anthony get my visa? Yes– but instead of the short turn around time that he assured me was possible it took nearly 1 MONTH! If Anthony would have been more forthcoming with information about the status of my visa along the way I would be more sympathetic, but it is unacceptable because he works in a service industry in which that is his SOLE FUNCTION. Furthermore Anthony and the people at 123Brazil Visa cost me a lot of money both directly (through suggesting that I should pay for a bribe which never worked), indirectly (because I had to change international flight plans at the last minute). Probably what upset me most is that due to their actions, I missed out on 1 week of my vacation in Brazil, for this I don’t believe this company deserves even 1 star, however Unilocal won’t allow me to offer a review of 0 stars.
Bottomline I would never use or recommend 123 Brazil to anyone, or any of Anthony’s (the so-​called serial entrepreneur) other start-​ups companies. This may seem like a harsh review, but today every company is transparent, and I think it is very important that consumers are informed when making important decision like who to trust with your passport.

I had a last minute trip to Brazil and I had lost my passport with my current tourist visa. Short on time I used Anthony’s services for a rush 4 day service. My visa came back early and Anthony was very attentive via SMS/​text message when I had questions about the application form. He said «relax» and he was right.
I did do some comparison shopping and I found this price very competitive compared to other rush services. I found a cheaper one out there or two but the reviews were in the gutter. This business will give you piece of mind and worth it.

Short story: Anthony got the Brazil tourist visa in 3 business days, in my passport, delivered to my home. Words alone cannot express how grateful I am, and the amount of stress that was relieved.
Read on if you are interested in the long version, this will be really helpful for anyone in a similar situation:
7 business days before my flight is set to leave for Brazil I randomly find out that there is a visa required for US citizens traveling to Brazil. This is clearly my own fault for not checking into this, nonetheless, after doing some research online I found out it is a common occurrence. I could not change my flight because I was attending a wedding and had to leave on a particular date in order to arrive to the event on time. Making the situation worse is that the Brazil consulate in Los Angeles has a great reputation for being difficult, especially with US citizens that need a visa in a hurry…
The consulate could not give me an appointment in a timely matter to obtain the visa. They DO NOT offer rush or expedited visa services. I went to the consulate anyway (against their advice) and went to one of the windows asking for help. When they found out I came in without an appointment they pretty much chased me out of there and wanted to know how I could not follow directions. Terrible.
We are now 5 business days before my flight leaves to Brazil. I could not get an appointment at the consulate and they were completely unhelpful.
I did some research online and found out that you can obtain a tourist visa through private «expediters». Basically, these are companies/​persons that have built connections inside various consulates — Los Angeles, San Fran, Chicago, New York, etc. — and for an additional fee they will rush the visa, via their connections. There are two visa expediters working in the same building as the Brazilian consulate in Los Angeles. I chose 123brazilvisa.
When I first went in to Anthony’s office I was hesitant to use the service, but I was desperate. I explained to him my situation and asked if he could obtain the Visa for me within 5 business days. He asked me to sit down and wait a few minutes while he made a series of text messages. He received an answer back from a connection in New York and he said we could have the visa in 4 business days. ?! really ?! He took the consulate application, photocopies of drivers license and itinerary, my passport and fees. He seemed very honest and thorough, I left the office.
I texted Anthony twice in the next few days and he always responded quickly and asking me to be patient. In 3 business days my passport came via Fedex priority envelope from the New York Brazilian consulate, delivered to my front door. I am still in awe at this incredible service.
I have lots of thoughts and expletives that I could share about the Brazilian consulate in Los Angeles and their incredible inefficiency and poor service.
Anyhow here are the fees that I paid:
1) Travel expenses and loss of work for one day travel to Los Angeles to take care of visa
2) $ 160 money order to the Brazilian Consulate
3) $ 345 to 123brazilvisa for «super» expedite fee
The fee for Anthony’s service is less if he has more time to work. All of this can be handled through the mail/​fedex if you have time, no need to travel to LA to take care of this.
