Can I enter the UK with my non-EU wife?

Upvote:2

If the UK accepts that your marriage is not a marriage of convenience, then they should let her in as long as you can get to the border. Since Brazilians can enter without a visa, she does not need an EEA family permit.

However, depending on your tolerance for uncertainty and the consequences of a refusal to admit her (which depend on whether you'll be flying to the UK or entering by ferry or Eurostar), you may want to apply for one anyway. Doing so will allow you to get an official determination that your marriage is genuine in a less stressful context than that of the border crossing. If the permit is refused, you can appeal or reapply without being sent back.

On the other hand, anecdotes on this site suggest that border officers are more likely to accept freedom-of-movement claims than are visa officers.
