How Can Brazilians Rent or Lease a Car in the U.S.?

Brazilians can lease a car in the U.S. just like any other expat. And it's a good idea to set things up in advance of your move if possible. We understand that trying to lease an automobile or truck as an international citizen can seem a little overwhelming. However, leasing (or buying) a car in the U.S. is actually quite easy with us. We can help with the entire process, from choosing the vehicle and financing it to insuring it and picking it up. 

Quotes from Brazilians on Moving to the U.S.

"The first 2 months were challenging as there were many things going on at the same time so it was hard to settle down (new house, car, documents, work, school for my kid, shipping from my home country Brazil, etc). All of these activities combined with the emotions of leaving your country, far from everyone we ever knew before can be stressful. No specific challenges but the situation is not easy."


Driving in the United States

There are several differences between driving in Brazil and the United States. The U.S. has an extensive highway system, longer driving distances, and strict traffic law enforcement. You'll notice more pickup trucks, SUVs, and larger vehicles on the road than you're likely accustomed to. Most travel is by car, making having your own vehicle one of the easiest ways to commute, explore your new surroundings, and enjoy everything the United States has to offer.
