Planning a trip from Brazil to Belize? Before stepping off the plane, all Brazilian travelers need the Belize Travel Declaration.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about the Belize Travel Declaration form, why it matters, how to complete it, and what to expect when you land. Here’s everything you need to know, including quirky real-life tips from travelers who’ve done it (or almost didn’t).
What is the Belize travel declaration?
The Belize Travel Declaration is a mandatory customs and immigration form for anyone entering or exiting Belize via Philip Goldson International Airport including transit passengers and quick business travelers.
This document is not a visa. It’s a required immigration and customs form that gives Belizean authorities key details about your trip and what you're bringing with you.
Think of it as your express lane pass through Belizean immigration. Here’s what it covers:
- Customs declarations (like food, electronics, gifts)
- Travel details (flights, accommodations)
- Basic immigration questions
The form is only good for one trip. Re-entering Belize? You'll need a new one.
Do Brazilian citizens need a travel declaration to visit Belize?
Yes. All travelers, including Brazilian citizens, must complete the Belize Travel Declaration before entering or leaving the country via Philip Goldson International Airport.
Remember: No QR code, no entry.
When should Brazilian travelers complete it? ⏰
The form should be submitted before arriving in Belize and again before departing. It’s 100% online and takes just a few minutes to finish.
You’ll get a QR code via email. Save it to your phone or print a copy, just in case your battery decides to go rogue mid-landing.
“We filled out the declaration the night before our flight and woke up to the QR codes in the morning. Customs in Belize was smooth because we had our forms ready to go. Super simple,” boasted Camila T. from Rio.
What are you allowed to bring into Belize? 🍫🍜
One of the most common questions is about snacks and personal items. Belize keeps it pretty straightforward.
You can’t bring:
- Fresh meat or dairy products
- Fruits or vegetables
- Homemade food or anything not commercially packaged
What’s usually fine:
- Granola bars, popcorn, and other packaged snacks
- Small quantities of instant noodles for personal use
“I brought granola bars and ramen in my carry-on. No issues at customs as long as it's personal use and packaged,” sighed a relieved João V., backpacker from São Paulo.
And alcohol? Officially discouraged, but travelers say small amounts for personal sipping usually fly under the radar.
