Amauri, who has not appeared at international level for the Brazilian team, will be eligible in the future to play for the Italian national team because he has lived and played in Italy for over five years, and is eligible to acquire Italian nationality by marriage.

Following his impressive performances when at Palermo, he was suggested to be a potential call-up of the then Azzurri coach Roberto Donadoni, who stated he might be interested in calling him to the Italian squad. On 31 January 2009, Brazilian coach Dunga selected Amauri as a replacement for the injured Luís Fabiano in an international friendly against Italy.
