Russian birth tourism to Brazil increases

Russian birth tourism to Brazil has increased, with more Russians traveling to the country to give birth to children who will obtain Brazilian nationality. This trend is likely driven by Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine and stricter regulations in Argentina, which have made it more difficult for Russians to obtain citizenship in those countries. As a result, Brazil has become an attractive destination for Russians seeking a new nationality for their children. This shift in birth tourism could have implications for Brazil's population growth and demographic trends.

Why it matters

Russians are seeking alternative destinations for birth tourism due to stricter regulations in Argentina. This shift could bring economic benefits to Brazil's healthcare sector.
