Normative Resolution 87 - Visa Concessions to receive professional training

Normative Resolution 87
The National Immigration Council (CNIg) approved the Normative Resolution No. 87 of September 15th, 2010 that organizes the visas concessions to the foreign connected to the foreign company, to receive professional training with the branch, subsidiary or Brazilian Matrix belonging to the same economic group.

Article 1, paragraph, of this resolution defines the concept of professional training as “the activity that aims to develop skills and knowledge through practical work.”

The visa statute of this new resolution will follow the Normative depending on prior authorization of the Ministry of Labor and Employment (MTE).

The validity of the visa will be up to 1 (one) year, non-extendable, this circumstance will be shown at the Foreign Identity Card.

The article 3 stipulates that the Ministry of Labor and Employment (MTE) may reject an application for a visa if there is a circumstantial evidence of the company’s interest to make mere substitution of national to foreign labor.

Finally, we see this new law repealed the Normative Resolution 37/1999, concerning the visa concessions to foreign who wanted to come to the country for professional training, after their university graduation, without any employment link in Brazil.
