COVID-19 related information

This event is organized according to the “FIS COVID-19 Prevention - Guidelines for Event Organisers”, Brazilian Federal, State and
Local rules and the WHO – World Health Organization guidelines. Information for travelers: all non-Brazilian citizens or national
residents with a maximum stay of 90 days must have a medical insurance coverage for the duration of their stay (this does not apply
to national and residents of Brazil and passengers travelling as students in Brazil).

Furthermore, all participants (athletes and officials) must have and present COVID-19 test result: serological (blood) testing and/or RT-
PCR Test (swab), if necessary.

    -   Serological (blood) testing during pre-competition control – this determines if the person has had COVID-19
            o Positive result: athletes and officials with positive result may take part in the event, since this result show the person
                is positive for antibodies and therefore is immune for a period of time. After a positive result for the serological test,
                the person does not need a PCR Test.
                Fast test results will not be accepted.
            o Negative result: athletes and official with a negative result must have a PCR Test, since this result shows the person
                is negative for antibodies and therefore is not immune.
    -   RT-PCR Test prior to arrival at the event / venue – this determines if the person has COVID-19 at the moment of testing
            o Every person who wishes to access the event must have and present a negative COVID-19 PCR Test (swab test)
                result carried out within the previous 5 days (preferentially 3 days) before the arrival at the event for the first time and
                complete a questionnaire (see appendix 1). In the case of foreign participants, the RT-PCR test must be made in a
                laboratory in Brazil, after all trips with access to public places (airports, bus stations). This criterion does not include
                people who had a positive result for the serological (blood) test.

Due to the broad amount of local regulations and its constant changes the Entry deadline is September 8th (please see Entry section

travel for participants.

updated Brazilian regulations prior to start their international traveling, to avoid unnecessary traveling.
