Is Brazil's visa area strictly divided?

The division of consular areas is often determined by the number of embassies and consulates set up and the requirements of the country. Generally, it is divided according to different factors such as the applicant's passport, the place where the passport is issued or the place of birth. However, some countries do not divide the consular areas and can submit them at will. However, many countries divide the consular areas, such as Brazil. Is the Brazilian visa strictly divided the consular areas?

The Brazilian Embassy in China has three consulates and visa centers in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. Applicants need to submit materials to enter the application center according to the consular area divided by their place of work. The requirements for the division of consular areas are not strict. They can submit in their own consular areas or across consular areas.

According to the different locations of the established embassies and consulates, three consular areas are divided. The Beijing consular area is suitable for applicants other than Beijing and Guangzhou consular areas, and the Shanghai consular area is suitable for applicants from Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and Shandong. The Guangzhou consular area is suitable for work in Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Guizhou, Yunnan, and Hunan.

However, no matter which consular area to submit, the required materials and Brazil visa processing time are the same, the applicant needs to prepare the materials to submit according to their own entry purpose, the visa-out time is generally 15 to 20 working days, the time will be relatively long, the validity period, stay period and the number of entries issued are not fixed, the specific issue of the embassy shall prevail.

Therefore, the Brazilian visa is not strict in the division of the consular area. It only requires the applicant to enter the application center according to the materials submitted in the place of work. It can be submitted in the consular area to which it belongs or across the consular area. However, no matter which consular area is selected, the processing steps, materials and time are the same, and the signing speed will be relatively slow. It is recommended that the applicant handle it as soon as possible.
