Aiming to simplify the process of entering Brazil for Brazilians and foreigners. Now, it will no longer be necessary to present proof of vaccination or a negative Covid-19 test at the country's ports, airports and borders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This measure aims to facilitate the arrival of international travelers and follows the end of the health emergency of international importance declared by the World Health Organization (WHO).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In September 2022, the federal government established rules for the entry of travelers into the country through an interministerial ordinance, requiring the presentation of proof of vaccination or a negative Covid-19 test. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Segundo a ANVISA, a altera\u00e7\u00e3o tem como fundamento o fato de que a Covid-19 agora \u00e9 considerada uma doen\u00e7a estabelecida e cont\u00ednua, n\u00e3o sendo mais classificada pela OMS como uma ESPII \u2013 Emerg\u00eancia de Sa\u00fade P\u00fablica de Import\u00e2ncia Internacional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For this reason, a new announcement was issued officially dispensing with the documents required to enter Brazil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
ANVISA is the highest authority in charge of epidemiological surveillance at ports, airports and borders, in addition to being responsible for executing and coordinating surveillance activities at these entry points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The decision to no longer require the presentation of these documents was formalized through a technical note published on May 23. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The document released by Anvisa states:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cThis scenario made it possible to determine that Covid-19 is now an established and ongoing health problem, no longer constituting a PHEIC. Therefore, Brazil no longer requires travelers of international origin to prove vaccination against Covid-19 or present a negative test result, as well as the implementation by administrators of passenger terminals and transport operators of measures to prevent and mitigate the disease\u201d.<\/p>\nANVISA document.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Preventive measures continue<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Despite the exemption of proof of vaccination and negative test, Anvisa emphasizes that the recommendations for measures to prevent and control Covid-19, as well as the notification and response to suspected or confirmed cases, must be maintained. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This means it is still important to follow hygiene practices, social distancing and wearing masks to prevent the spread of the virus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Contingency plans and communication<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The regulation also highlights the need for entry points to Brazil, such as ports, airports and borders, to maintain updated contingency plans to face future international health emergencies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Furthermore, it is essential to ensure surveillance and care for suspected and confirmed cases of Covid-19. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Health authorities must be promptly informed of public health events on board means of transport or in passenger terminals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Previous revocations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Since the WHO announcement, Anvisa has revoked a series of technical notes and resolutions implemented in the early years of the pandemic, but which lost their effectiveness with the end of the global health emergency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
An example of this was the mandatory presentation of proof of vaccination or a negative Covid-19 test to board cruise ships that sail in Brazilian jurisdictional waters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In March, due to the improvement in the epidemiological outlook, Anvisa also eliminated the obligation to wear masks in airports and on aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
