Many in SP/Campinas areas.
Just ask your question(s).
Hope the border opens up. Currently closed except BR citizens and permanent residence.

Thank you for your answer!

Are you in Campinas or Mogi Mirim?

Border in Spain will open in July 1st, do you know in Brazil when?

Texanbrazil

No word as to extending the border closure which expires on the 21st.

I highly doubt Brazil will open soon. The 3 southern states are only starting for COVID season. Amazonas, Para, Ceara should have plateaud and declining. Not here (but hoping it stays like that)!

So do you mean that Brazil accepts foreigners from 21st of this month of June?

Sorry to ask you more questions: But I will arrive in September to Mogi Mirim.

are you near by around Brazil?

Thank you

Right now no word on opening borders in BR. I see them to continue to be closed (Land, Air and Sea) for another 30 days, until July. They are extending month by month.
CoV is increasing and not in check.
Most S. A. countries remain closed.
May need to wait till 2021.

Brazil's border closure was just extended to July 5.  Looks like it's being examined every two weeks now.

As abthree said;
Here is the announcement

Hi hello!

Any news about Brazil opening the border?

Is there a quarantine upon arrival?

Thank you

abthree

As things stand at this moment  (9:21 AM AST, July 27), Brazil's closure is scheduled to end on the 29th.  I haven't seen an extension published yet, but they waited until the last minute to publish the last one.  All anyone making plans can do is check the Brazilian media, particularly the sites of the major papers, several times a day.

As abthree advised borders still remain closed:
Lastest on requirements:
Health Alert – U.S. Embassy Brasilia, Brazil (July 23, 2020) 

Location:  Brazil and the United States

Event:  U.S. and Brazil Entry Restrictions



Although both the United States and Brazil have restricted entry of some foreigners as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic (see below), commercial flights between the two countries continue to run on a regular basis. 



Entry into the United States remains suspended, per Presidential Proclamation, for foreign nationals of all nationalities, including Brazilians, who were present in Brazil within 14 days prior to their arrival at the port of entry.  The travel restrictions do not apply to U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents (Green Card holders), most immediate family members of U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents, and specific categories of individual visa holders who are identified in the Proclamation.  Travelers to the United States from Brazil may encounter unexpected delays during the check-in and boarding process and are advised to arrive at the airport earlier than normally recommended.  



Brazil has a current travel ban (with some exemptions) in place through July 29.  Exempted travelers by air must arrive at the following international airports:  São Paulo International Airport, Tom Jobim International Airport in Rio de Janeiro, Viracapos International Airport in Campinas, and Brasilia International Airport.  [bExempted travelers must present a medical declaration, in English, Spanish, or Portuguese, from a health authority or doctor that attests they do not have COVID-19.  Please note that test results alone will not be accepted.  The Brazilian government recommends the traveler have the medical declaration with the date as close as possible to the day of departure.   

As flights are subject to change, please contact airlines directly for the most current schedule information. 



The U.S. Mission in Brazil continues to encourage U.S. citizens who wish to return to the United States to make commercial flight arrangements as soon as possible unless they are prepared to remain abroad for an indefinite period.  The U.S. government does not currently anticipate arranging repatriation flights from Brazil.

Hello

Any news about reentering into Brazil?

See above post 12
Air border entry allowed to certain airports, but require the restrictions written above.  Land and Sea borders remain closed.
Proper Visas and only allowed 90 days with no extension at this time, unless you fall under the exempt status.

Location:  Brazil
Event:  Updated Brazil Travel Decree/Lifting of Air Entry Restrictions
Effective July 29, Brazil updated its decree to allow entry of foreign visitors traveling by air.  However, Brazil has extended for an additional 30 days the entry of foreigners by land (unless for transit) and sea (through at least August 28).   
Per the new policy, foreign travelers by air to Brazil, for a short stay of up to 90 days, must present to the airline company, prior to boarding, proof of purchase of health insurance valid in Brazil with coverage for the entire period of the trip.  Failure to provide this could result in the denial of entry by Brazilian authorities.
Foreigners who are in a land border country and need to cross the border to embark on a flight back to their country of residence may enter Brazil with authorization from the Federal Police and must follow the below steps:
•    The foreigner must obtain an official note from the embassy or consulate of the country of citizenship (U.S. citizens should reach out to the closest U.S. Embassy or Consulate-General for assistance);
•    When crossing the border, the air tickets for the flight to the home country must be presented to the immigration official; and
•    After approval of the request, the foreigner must go directly to the airport after crossing the land border.
Those in the following categories are exempt from the provisions in this decree:
•    Brazilian citizens, born or naturalized
•    Permanent residents of Brazil
•    National Immigration Registry Card Holders (Registro Nacional Migratório – RNM)
•    Foreign professionals employed by a non-governmental aid organization recognized by the Brazilian government
•    Foreign officials accredited by the Brazilian government
