During the Covid-19 pandemic, many countries restricted flights from Brazil for a while, as well as the entry of Brazilians and passengers with a recent stay in the country, to prevent the increase in the numbers of cases and deaths from this disease. Despite that, other nations, already started the process of reopening borders and resuming international flights.

The city of São Paulo and the Municipal Department of International Affairs reinforces the recommendations set forth by the World Health Organization (WHO) and specialists which include the continued practice of social isolation, disencouraging international travel for tourism.
