Hi nungry

Unfortunately, in Brazil, only brazilian citizens are allowed to work as professional pilots. The only exception to that rule, is for instructor pilots instructing on a new type.

It is damn near impossible. Almost all countries require pilots to be citizens of their countries to even hold a professional license. Case in point-- I am a permanent resident of one country-- legal to live and work there (and pay taxes, of course) as far as immigration is concerned, but Aeronautica Civil has some old rules from the 50īs that say that professional pilots must be citizens of the said country. Try getting a job in Belize. Or maybe some foreign country that has a government contract here-- they do exist.
