Brazil–Japan relations

Brazil–Japan relations refers to the bilateral relationship of Brazil and Japan.

Japan first established diplomatic relations with Brazil in 1895. Japan used foreign aid to promote its trade with Brazil after World War II. Direct investment was used to develop businesses in Brazil. More Japanese emigrants are found in Brazil than any other country, giving Japanese Brazilians a significant demographic presence in Brazil.

According to a 2013 BBC World Service Poll, 71% of Brazilians view Japan's influence positively, with only 10% expressing a negative view, making Brazil one of the most pro-Japanese nations in the world. In the same poll, 40% of Japanese people viewed Brazil's influence positively, with only 3% holding a negative view.
