Brazil COVID Restrictions
Brazil like most Covid-19 affected countries have formulated certain restrictions and policies to prevent a further spread and a new wave of Covid-19 and these entry and travel restrictions include;
- Travelers entering Brazil by air must present a negative PCR test performed within 72 hours, and a traveler’s health declaration form to their airline before boarding (the airline will distribute the form).
- Land and sea borders are closed to non-citizens with exemptions for travelers who are en route to fly home. In that case, travelers must get authorization in advance, present a note from their own embassy or consulate authorizing their crossing at the border, show the plane ticket, and go straight to the airport.
- There is no quarantine on arrival. Even quarantine for those with symptoms is voluntary.
Who Can Travel To Brazil?
Everyone except persons from the UK or foreign nationals who have visited the UK in the last 14 days. The Brazilian government banned all flights from and to the UK after the UK announced the English variant of Covid-19.
