Brazil-Peru Integration Bridge

The Brazil-Peru Integration Bridge is a suspension bridge that crosses the Acre River and connects the Brazilian town of Assis Brasil with the Peruvian town of Iñapari. It spans approximately 240 meters and accommodates both pedestrian and vehicle traffic.

The bridge opened in 2006 and marked a turning point in bilateral relations between the two countries. It became the first permanent transportation link to directly connect the nations at this location.

The bridge brings together two communities where people meet daily to maintain family ties and conduct trade across the border. It serves as a gathering place where local residents from both nations naturally interact and support each other's livelihoods.

You need valid passports and appropriate visas to cross, and you must follow customs regulations from both countries. It is helpful to check with local authorities beforehand about current requirements and any restrictions.

The bridge experienced a temporary closure in 2021 that led to demonstrations by local residents dependent on cross-border commerce. The event highlighted how critical this connection is to the economic stability of the border communities.
