Lebanese Brazilians (Portuguese: Líbano-brasileiros), (Arabic: البرازيليون اللبنانيون) are Brazilians of full or partial Lebanese ancestry, including Lebanese-born immigrants to Brazil. According to the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, they form some of the largest Asian communities in the country, along with other West Asian and East Asian descendants.[3]
Although the exact number of Lebanese Brazilians is disputed, it is believed by some that there are at least 6 million Brazilians of Lebanese origin.[4]
