Drone Rules in Brazil for Foreign Creators (2026)
Brazil is one of the most cinematic countries on earth, and the Paraná coast, Curitiba's skyline and the Foz do Iguaçu falls beg to be filmed from the air. But flying a drone here is not a grey area you can improvise. Two federal authorities, ANAC and DECEA, govern every flight, and getting it wrong can mean a confiscated aircraft, a heavy fine and a ruined shoot. This 2026 guide explains exactly what a foreign creator must do to fly legally.
GuidesBringing Camera Gear Into Brazil: ATA Carnet and Temporary Admission
A single missing serial number can turn a smooth arrival into a case of gear locked in a bonded warehouse while your shoot days burn. Bringing professional camera equipment into Brazil is entirely doable, but customs treats it as commercial cargo, not holiday luggage. This guide explains the two legitimate routes, the ATA Carnet and temporary admission, what officers at Curitiba airport and the Port of Paranagua actually expect, and how to keep your kit moving instead of impounded.
GuidesBest Filming Locations in Paraná
Paraná is one of Brazil's most cinematic states and one of its least filmed. In a single week you can move from the roar of Iguaçu Falls to the glass domes of Curitiba, from a cloud-forest railway through virgin Atlantic Forest to a colonial port on the Bay of Paranaguá. This is the honest, on-the-ground guide to where to point your camera, and how to get access without your shoot falling apart at a checkpoint.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a permit to film in public places?
Many public spaces, parks and landmarks require prior authorization, especially for commercial crews. We identify what each location needs and file the requests for you.
Can I bring my camera gear into Brazil temporarily?
Yes. Professional gear usually enters under a temporary import regime or an ATA carnet so it is not taxed as an import. We prepare the equipment list and coordinate customs clearance.
Are drones allowed, and can you get the permits?
Drone flights require registration and clearances from ANAC and DECEA, and some areas are restricted. We handle the applications and advise on where and when you can legally fly.
Do you work in Arabic?
Yes — we serve creators and crews in Arabic, English and Portuguese.
