Overview
The loss of a residence permit can occur due to prolonged absence or failure to meet certain obligations. The loss of residency can only be declared after a legal process, with the right to defence and adversarial proceedings. 1. Avoid prolonged absences: Some permits have time limits for staying outside the country. Plan your travels considering these deadlines. 2. Stay informed: Certain permits have requirements such as employment or study, and updating of registered information to ensure compliance with the law. 3. Know your rights: In Brazil, loss or cancellation is not automatic. There is a legal process, ensuring the right to be notified, as well as the right to a fair hearing and a full defence. Legal guidance can help clarify the applicable rules, the risks involved, and the next step that fits your situation.
