Brazil visa question
As a USA or Canadian citizen, can I pass into and out of Brazil on the same day and not have to have a visa? Anyone done this?

ENTRY / EXIT REQUIREMENTS FOR U.S. CITIZENS: Brazil requires U.S. citizens to carry a valid U.S. passport and visa when traveling to Brazil for any purpose. You must obtain your Brazilian visa in advance from the Brazilian Embassy or consulate nearest to your place of residence in the United States. There are no "airport visas" and immigration authorities will refuse entry into Brazil to anyone not possessing a valid visa. The U.S. government cannot assist you if you arrive in Brazil without proper documentation.

bump!
Can someone guide me where to go to find out if I need a visa to pass from Cobija, Bolivia / Brasileia, Brazil to the Asis Brazil / Iñapai, Peru (110 km) in the same day without a Brazilian visa? Can this be considered a 'transit'?

Doesn't seem worth while...
It looks like a mountain of paperwork to get a 10 day in transit visa, which expires 1 month after it is generated and you still have to pay the reciprocal tourist fee...something in the area of $160.00.
This web page appears to be provided for travelers from the Middle East. I imagine the details would apply. If you are really stuck on this route, you might want to reach out to the Brazilian Embassy

Brazil is a pain to access, but its worth it. I can't figure out why are you want to cross through a small corner of it. Considering the expense and paperwork, I would look into different routes.
