Transit Visa
 
Hello Everybody,

I'm in need of some wisdom and guidance.
I'm an indian passport holder. I'm flying
SYD - GRU (Emirates)
GRU - BOG (Copa)

I dont plan on having any checked in bags. So i was wondering if i needed a transit visa or not?

I noticed on the GRU website that they both leave from the same terminal

Any help would be much appreciated

You can transit without a visa at GRU. You won't have any problems.

Why don't you check-in online?

Brazil does not issue transit visas.
You should remain within the transit area between flights.

Flights ticketed separately or together? Contact Emirates, since they're responsible for making sure you have any required visa before letting you board their flight to GRU. Others have written here about getting boarding passes in transit (or you could contact Copa). If in doubt, call the nearest Brazilian embassy.
