Yellow Fever Vaccination Certificate for Departure: how it works in Brazil — first-hand
Short answer
No specific vaccinations are mandatory for entry into or departure from Brazil for Russian citizens. However, it is advisable to get a Yellow Fever vaccination at least 10 days before travel, as you may need the international certificate for onward transit or entry into other countries.
From real experience
No vaccinations or additional documents are required for entry into Brazil from Russia or for departures from Brazil to Russia.
