Hi Guys,

The country I want to travel to, requires a Fit to fly certificate/letter from a doctor, in addition of a COVID19 PCR test. I am able to locate a lab which does the PCR test. But looking for places to do this fit to fly letter. Does someone know about the procedure getting such a letter in Brazil and possible costs?

I have looked around and found UAE are doing blood tests at Dubi.
Others are just checking insurance.
I am not an expert, but some are questioning blood antibodies and proteins are questionable.
I would check with PF at an airport.

There´s no specific pattern or format for the letter. Any doctor can make the certificate after examining you and after the test is done. There are letter formats on-line that you can download. He can sign that and put his CRM stamp. It doesn´t matter if it´s in English or Portuguese.
