Dear Dutch students in Brazil,
You have probably heard that The European Union will close its borders to all non-essential travel due to COVID-19 (coronavirus). EU citizens however can return home.
We have heard from many of you already, asking us if it’s best to go home or not. In the end the choice is yours, but currently – with all rapidly changing developments – it seems best to advise you to return home to the Netherlands.
For the latest news from the Netherlands embassy with regards to COVID-19, access the official and specific page on the subject: Coronavirus: veelgestelde vragen reisadvies per land (https://www.nederlandwereldwijd.nl/documenten/vragen-en-antwoorden/reisadvies-brazilie)
Do not forget to inform your university, possibly they already advised you to return. If you know other students from the Netherlands, please pass them this message.
If you have questions, do not hesitate to contact us via [email protected] or via +55 21 99644-0322
Best regards,
Simone Perez / Neso chief representative officer
