Hospitality in Brazil

Brazil's hospitality culture includes churrascarias, botecos and vibrant nightlife. Tourism centres on Rio, São Paulo and coastal regions. Food is regionally diverse.

Tipping

A 10% service charge is commonly added to restaurant bills. Additional tipping is optional.

Working there

Hospitality workers are covered by labour law, but informal work is common. Wages are modest; tips and service charges supplement income.

Rules on pay and visas change. Check official government guidance before you move.
