Renewal of CRNM Card

Hi,

I study in Germany. Last year I spent a semester in Sao Paulo, so I went to register myself in Policia Federal. Some months later I received my CRNM card, all good. Later I decided that I liked it so much that I want to return to Germany, give away my apartment and come back to finish my studies in Sao Paulo. So before leaving Brazil, I went to Policia Federal again to RENEW my CRNM, because it was soon expiring. A friend of mine will pick the card up for me and send it to me, so I can enter Brazil again.
Question: will it really be enough to show my passport and CRNM card at the airport passport control when I enter Brazil again? Won't they want to see a visa in my passport again?

As it happens, I just did this last Sunday night. You get into the "Brazilians and Permanent Residents" line at Passport Control, just show them your CRNM and your passport, and you're fine.
