List of Indigenous territories (Brazil)

There are 724 Indigenous territories in Brazil, comprising about 13% of the country's land area. According to Article 231 of the Brazilian Constitution, the Indigenous peoples of Brazil possess an inalienable right to lands they "traditionally occupy" and are automatically conferred permanent possession of these lands. In practice, Indigenous territories must be formally demarcated to gain full legal protection, which is a multi-stage process overseen by the Fundação Nacional dos Povos Indígenas (FUNAI) and the Ministry of Justice and often involves protracted legal battles.
