Not all manufacturers have recommended brake fluid change intervals. The Europeans typically stick to 2 every 2 years, others are 5 years and some...no recommendation at all. I don't take that as meaning it doesn't need changed. One of the following usually ends up being true anyway:
You'll need a brake job before 10 years and a shop will probably recommend a flush anyway.
A dealer will catch you for a brake flush on an upsell during routine service.
You live in a salt/winter state and metal lines underneath the car will croak before the fluid does.
