The '''Brazilian diaspora''' is the migration of [[Brazilian people|Brazilians]] to other countries, a mostly recent phenomenon that has been driven mainly by economic recession and hyperinflation that afflicted [[Brazil]] in the 1980s and early 1990s, and since 2014, by the political and [[2014 Brazilian economic crisis|economic crisis]] that culminated in the impeachment of [[Dilma Rousseff]] in 2016 and the election of [[Jair Bolsonaro]] in 2018, as well as the re-election of [[Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva]] in 2022,<ref name="dnportugal">{{cite news |last1=Ribeiro|first1=Carolina |title=Muito além de Rio e São Paulo, brasileiros vêm "de todo lado" |url=https://www.dn.pt/6778118437/muito-alem-de-rio-e-sao-paulo-brasileiros-vem-de-todo-lado/ |access-date=26 June 2024 |work=Diario de Noticias Portugal |date=25 June 2024 |language=pt-BR}}</ref> in addition to chronic violence in Brazilian urban centers.<ref name="oglobo">{{cite news |last1=Batista |first1=Henrique Gomes |title=Crise e violência levam brasileiros a se mudar para o Canadá |url=https://oglobo.globo.com/mundo/crise-violencia-levam-brasileiros-se-mudar-para-canada-1-21462957 |access-date=14 December 2021 |work=O Globo |date=11 June 2017 |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref name="istoe">{{cite news |last1=Perez |first1=Fabíola |title=O êxodo dos brasileiros |url=https://istoe.com.br/433226_O+EXODO+DOS+BRASILEIROS/ |access-date=14 December 2021 |work=IstoÉ |date=21 August 2015 |language=pt-BR}}</ref><ref name="dwbrazil">{{cite news |last1=Veiga |first1=Edison |title=Brasil vive o maior êxodo de sua história |url=https://www.dw.com/pt-br/brasil-vive-o-maior-%C3%AAxodo-de-sua-hist%C3%B3ria/a-59698193 |access-date=14 December 2021 |work=Deutsche Welle |date=13 December 2021 |language=pt-BR}}</ref>

West 46th Street has historically been a commercial center for Brazilians living or visiting [[New York City]]. In 1995 the city officially recognized it as "[[Little Brazil, Manhattan|Little Brazil]] Street".

In [[Massachusetts]], there is significant concentration of Brazilian immigrants in the town of [[Framingham, Massachusetts|Framingham]], which in recent years has spilt out into the neighboring towns of [[Marlborough, Massachusetts|Marlborough]] and [[Hudson, Massachusetts|Hudson]], among others.
In the Brazilian community, it is said that [[Pompano Beach]] in [[Florida]] has the greatest concentration of Brazilians in the USA. The Brazilian communities in these towns are vibrant, having contributed much to the local cuisine and culture, but Brazilian immigrants often feel discriminated against and are often thought to be [[illegal immigrants]] by their non-Brazilian neighbors.<ref>{{cite web|title=Brazilian Immigration|url=http://www.diversitycoalition.org/brazilian_culture/brazilian-immigration?func=view;overrideTemplateId=PBtmpl0000000000000002|access-date=7 November 2012|author=The Massachusetts Legal Services Diversity Coalition|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070929020740/http://www.diversitycoalition.org/brazilian_culture/brazilian-immigration?func=view%3BoverrideTemplateId%3DPBtmpl0000000000000002|archive-date=29 September 2007|year=2004|url-status=dead}}</ref>

A disproportionate number of Brazilians who have emigrated to the US came from the town of [[Governador Valadares]], in the state of [[Minas Gerais]].

{{main|Brazilians in Japan}}

The majority of Brazilians living in Japan are of Japanese descent, and the Immigration Act was altered to allow children and grandchildren of Japanese nationals, as well as their non-Japanese spouse,  to receive a work permit easily. Reasons for the migration of Brazilians were mainly economic. Brazilians sought out opportunities to improve their life, escape unemployment, and also to support their family. In contrast, cultural factors were considered not important as a reason for migrating to Japan.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=McKenzie |first1=David |last2=Salcedo |first2=Alejandrina |date=April 2014 |title=Japanese-Brazilians and the Future of Brazilian Migration to Japan |url=https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1468-2435.2009.00571.x |journal=International Migration |language=en |volume=52 |issue=2 |pages=66–83 |doi=10.1111/j.1468-2435.2009.00571.x |issn=0020-7985 |url-access=subscription}}</ref> Most of them live in industrial areas where there used to be a plenty of job offers at factories, such as [[Aichi]], [[Shizuoka Prefecture|Shizuoka]] and [[Gunma]] Prefectures, among others. While approximately 300,000 Brazilians lived there at its climax, the economic crisis in 2008 slashed their job and more than a third of them have decided to return to Brazil. As of June 2024, there were 212,325 Brazilian nationals in Japan.<ref>[https://www.moj.go.jp/isa/publications/press/13_00047.html 令和6年6月末現在における在留外国人数について]</ref>

{{main|Brazilians in Portugal}}

[[Portugal]]  has grown to be a popular destination for Brazilian migrants because of their similar language and culture. The very simple procedure for Brazilians to obtain Portuguese citizenship is one of the main causes. Many Brazilians have been able to obtain dual nationality after Portugal changed its nationality rules to permit any grandchild of a certified Portuguese citizen to apply for citizenship, which has increased the number of Brazilians migrating to Portugal. Portugal is a desirable travel destination because of this legislation as well as the cultural similarities between the two nations. Brazilian pop culture is also well known to the Portuguese, which facilitates the assimilation of Brazilian immigrants.

As a result, Brazilians make up a sizable portion of the immigrant population in Portugal, accounting for almost 25% of all foreign residents. Since the mid-2010s, there has been an increase in the number of qualified professionals, including engineers, IT specialists, and health workers. Even though a large number of Brazilian immigrants have advanced degrees, they frequently struggle to find employment that matches their skills, which occasionally forces them to work in industries like construction, services, or elder care. Despite these difficulties, Portugal's friendly atmosphere, pleasant temperature, and tranquil way of life draw a lot of migrants. Portuguese social and economic life is significantly influenced by the Brazilian community, which is still thriving, especially in Lisbon, Porto, and Setúbal.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2021-05-12 |title=A look at the Brazilian community in Portugal |url=https://www.movingtoportugal.pt/en/daily-life/the-brazilian-community-in-portugal/ |access-date=2024-11-24 |website=Moving to Portugal |language=en-US}}</ref>

=== Switzerland ===
There is a large population of Brazilians present in Switzerland although the exact number is difficult to pinpoint due to a majority of them being undocumented.

=== Ireland ===
{{Main|Brazilians in Ireland}}
During the late 1990s Brazilians migrated to Ireland to work in meat processing shops in small towns due to the severe labour shortages that was present during the time, a majority of them were considered undocumented. Brazilians in Ireland were also mistreated by certain business owners, preferably towards the ones who barely spoke English and were undocumented. For example, in a certain case which saw five Brazilians sue a plant owner due to having worked long hours, weren't being paid what was promised, and receiving illegal deductions from their wages. It's also been reported that some Brazilians in the late 2000s were being paid around €5 an hour for an 8-hour working day which significantly below the minimum average at around €8.30.<ref name=":2" />

The total amount of Brazilians that were present in Ireland from the years 2002-2013 was clocked in at 8,704 which came from the Ireland census.<ref name=":2">{{Cite journal |last1=Maher |first1=Garret |last2=Cawley |first2=Mary |date=January 2016 |title=Short-Term Labour Migration: Brazilian Migrants in Ireland |url=https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/psp.1859 |journal=Population, Space and Place |language=en |volume=22 |issue=1 |pages=23–35 |doi=10.1002/psp.1859 |issn=1544-8444|url-access=subscription }}</ref>
