TELEPHONE LINES AND INTERNET IN BRAZIL
INTERNET FOR TRAVELERS IN BRAZIL
Nowadays it is almost impossible to live without internet, after all, when we travel we like to send news to family and friends, post photos on social networks and find interesting information of the destination. In Brazil there are 4 main mobile operators : Vivo, Tim, Oi and Claro. All work with prepaid chips, which include internet in their packages. These prepaid lines can be purchased by travelers by purchasing a prepaid simcard/chip, and only one IDENTIFICATION document is required to purchase the service plan. In the case of foreigners, any tourist who comes to Brazil can buy a prepaid cell phone chip in the stores of the operators. In order for you to purchase your prepaid chip we will present below the addresses of the main mobile operators in Brazil, in the south of Rio de Janeiro.
