Residence permits for work and investment purposes have shown positive growth for the fourth consecutive month. The number of granted permits has more than doubled compared to a year ago, experiencing a growth of 104.6%. Moreover, it was 13.0% higher than the figure recorded in September (Graph 1).
The observed result in October was primarily influenced by the performance of Italians, Filipinos, British, and Germans (Graph 2).
Despite the lower volume of residence permits granted to skilled workers for work purposes in October, the Chinese experienced a positive variation compared to the previous month of September (Graph 3).

In September, there was a decrease in the movement of immigrant workers in the formal market (-4.3%), along with a significant reduction in job creation (-12.4%) compared to the previous month. However, when compared to September 2021, there was a positive variation both in terms of movement and the number of vacancies generated (Graph 4).
Even in a scenario of decreased movement and job reduction, Venezuelans achieved positive results in the month (Graph 5).
The South Region remained the highest contributor in generating the greatest number of vacancies in the formal labor market for immigrants.
The Southeast, Midwest, and North regions did not exhibit significant differences, while the Northeast region emerged as the least attractive destination for immigrants in terms of labor opportunities (Map 1).

The cross-border movements of people within the country experienced a slight increase in the month of October, indicating a trend of stability since June. It is worth emphasizing that international human mobility is still being impacted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic (Graph 6).
Although Argentines were the main nationality among those crossing Brazil's borders, Venezuelans, French, and Chileans were the ones who generated the largest positive balances (Graph 7).
