Objective: To analyze the profile of indigenous infant mortality. Method: Cross-sectional epidemiological study conducted with 254 deaths in indigenous children under one year of age, notified to the Indigenous Health Care Information System, in the state of Pará, from 2013 to 2018. Results: A higher proportion of deaths in male children (53.9%; n=137), Kaiapó (38.2%; n=97), Munduruku (27.6%; n=70) and Xicrim (13.8%; n=35) were identified. The deaths occurred in hospitals (53.9%; n=137), and in homes (24%; n=61), and the main causes were: perinatal diseases (27.2%; n=69); respiratory system diseases (18.9%; n=48), infectious and parasitic diseases (15.7%; n=40). Conclusion: The indigenous infant mortality is higher in some ethnicities, which favors actions of confrontation in those more affected. It is necessary to value the indigenous culture and recognize the socioeconomic problems to be contemplated in an action plan to reduce this indicator.
