I also see a lot of brain drain in Brazil. Most are from public colleges, and they go mostly to Europe.


I thought this was because lots of Brazilians are eligible for Portuguese passports


Many come straight to Germany or other more rich EU countries.


A portuguese passport would allow just that. So would an Italian passport (many South Americans, especially from Brazil and Argentina would qualify).


My point is that as a Brazilian, you don’t need a Portuguese passport before you go to a rich EU country. It’s trivial to get a German working visa in tech.


If you've got a European passport then you can go anywhere in the EU.
