Mexican immigration in Brazil has been significant. Brazil is the Latin American country with the sixth largest Mexican presence since the end of the 20th century, with a mild climate and culture that characterizes this South American country. The Mexican population in Brazil according to official data from the Government of Mexico in 2020 was 2,132 people, most of whom are members of business and educational communities for Mexican immigrants. Unlike other destinations, most Mexicans who immigrate to the country come mainly from Mexico City, Veracruz, Nuevo León and Jalisco.

The Mexican community in Brazil is considered the third most numerous in South America and the fastest growing. Mexicans who live in the country stay temporarily (about 1 to 3 years), mainly for work, research, studies or commercial opening, which is why it is a community that is continually renewing itself.
