Objective: To know the immigrant’s profile who use primary care in Florianopolis. Methods: Cross-sectional populational-based study with register data from foreigners who used Primary Health Care in Florianopolis between 2014 and 2016. The variables were nationality, sex, age, level of education, race and service used. Results: A total of 10,108 immigrants accessed primary care in Florianopolis during the study period, with a predominance profile of adults, Caucasian, with medium/high level of education, Latin Americans, mainly using pharmacy and medical consultations, distributed in all primary care units at Florianopolis. We observed a higher level of schooling and a greater proportion of children and elderly people in the population coming from developed countries, in addition to a lower use of services. Discussion: The profile of immigrants in the study population is comparable to the immigrant population in some European studies, with a predominance of Latin Americans and Caribbean, with a high frequency of economically active age group, using medical consultations and high education among immigrants from developed countries.
