Why does the Brazil government make tavellers wipe their feet before crossing the border from Argentina?


Additional Details
There could be something in the dirt that can be transported on shoes...but what about car tires, etc?

That's a sanitary action, to prevent foot-and-mouth disease from spreading. It's an internationally approved practice, and a very effective one also. Besides feet wiping, tires of cars, trucks and buses are sprayed for the same reason.

Perhaps they feel superior to argentina and dont want them draging in the 'dirt' (pun intended) from Argentina.

bugs, especially fungus.

I have never heard of that, but if it's true, then it probably is an insult to Argentina, like they don't want Argentina's filth in their country. OUCH!


ivan4an
No. There is not such thing. Where I am, a travel to Argentina long less than 8 hours. I never listen about it. My brothers visits Argentina and nothing strange like this happen. So many tourists came to our beaches in summer, and they never "wipe their feet" to enter our country.


brasilian girl
As somebody already said this is a sanitary action that not only people that come from Argentina but from everywhere else need to do. That is why those rugs are right there in the exit of the airplain and gates .
