Can I buy my dad an life insurance policy while he's living in a different country?

-There are two variables to this story:

Can I buy an insurance policy in Brazil for him?



He's too hard-headed and doesn't want to do this buy himself.If nothing else, he can apply for a policy for himself in Brazil, and you can send him the money to make the payments. He might have to have a health exam. There's no financial risk to him, because if you don't pay him, he doesn't have to pay the policy, and then they'll just cancel it.
Yes, you just need to buy an international life insurance policy on him and he may need to do a phone interview as well.
