The National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa) published this Monday (29) a query containing the data of travelers who wish to enter Brazil by air, land and sea. The document is based on Ordinance 660/2021, issued through the Civil House on Saturday (27) and which establishes express and transitory restrictions for the access of travelers to the country due to the emergence of the Ômicron variant.
Temporary flights to Brazil from or from the following countries are prohibited: Republic of South Africa; Republic of Botswana; Kingdom of Essuatini; Kingdom of Lesotho; Republic of Namibia and Republic of Zimbabwe.
Authorization for foreign travelers to travel to Brazil, travel or travel in those countries 14 days prior to boarding is also temporarily suspended.
The rules, according to Anvisa, do not limit access by Brazilians, of any type or origin. “Brazilians are not limited to the country,” the firm said in a statement.
Currently, Brazilians who have traveled to one of the six indexed countries must complete a 14-day quarantine in their final destination city in Brazil.
It is also necessary to complete the traveler’s declaration of physical fitness within 24 hours prior to departure for Brazil.
Travelers will also be required to present a non-detectable (negative) RT-PCR test, taken within 72 hours of boarding, or a negative antigen test, taken within 24 hours of boarding.
Children under 12 years of age travelling with a companion do wish to take the test, provided that all companions present documents with a negative or undetectable result.
According to Anvisa, foreigners who have passed through the six countries included in the list of restrictions can enter Brazil as long as they meet the same criteria valid for Brazilian travelers.
Access is suspended for foreigners who travel or hold a price ticket, in the 14 days prior to boarding, in one of the six listed countries, with the exception of foreigners who meet one of the following criteria: foreigners with residence permanent, for a constant period or indefinite period, in Brazilian territory; foreign professional in project at the service of a foreign organization, as long as he is identified; foreign official accredited to the Brazilian government; foreigner who is the spouse, partner, child, father or mother of a Brazilian; whose access is particularly legal through the Brazilian government for reasons of public interest or humanitarian reasons; and holder of the National Migration Registry.
Flights to Brazil from the Republic of South Africa, the Republic of Botswana, the Kingdom of Eswatini, the Kingdom of Lesotho, the Republic of Namibia and the Republic of Zimbabwe are prohibited.
The restriction does not apply to the operation of cargo flights, attended by personnel dressed in personal protective equipment (PPE), whose equipment must respect the fitness protocols specified in the order of the Civil House.
Cruise trips, to Anvisa, are still allowed and compliance with the protocol established through Anvisa is mandatory.
Only ships that sail exclusively in Brazilian waters during the cruise season are allowed.
The operation of embarkation vessels is also authorized. Ships, according to the agency, will have to comply with strict protocols, which include boarding and disembarking examinations of crew members and quarantine in case a case is detected or suspected on board.
Anvisa highlights that access to the country by foreigners of any nationality through roads or any other terrain is still prohibited.
Exceptions provided for in the ordinance include, for example, the shipment of goods and transit between dual cities (municipalities crossed by a border, a drought or a river).
