There is a small but recognizable community of Brazilians in Angola consisting mainly of immigrants and expatriates from Brazil.

[1] With the formation of the CPLP (Community of Portuguese Language Countries) in 1996 there has been an increase of Brazilian immigrants to Angola.

The firms are mainly involved in public works, sales of construction materials, project design, real estate and food.

[3] Brazilians are thus beginning to flock to a country which, in spite of the historical and linguistic links, was virtually an unknown quantity until just over a decade ago.

The 15,000 Brazilians registered in Angola live and work in the provinces of Cabinda, Lunda Norte and Malanje as well as in the capital, Luanda.
