The Visa Application Center will NOT reallocate previously booked appointments that are not used for any reason (such as a “no show” or erroneous or incomplete documentation) to other applicants, under any circumstances.

We kindly request all applicants to accurately input their application form number/protocol number ( Format of protocol number: XXXXXX-XXXXXX) when scheduling appointments. Failure to do so may result in the visa center refusing your application, and, therefore, requesting a new appointment

Important notice about Submitting Brazilian Visa in Guangzhou:

Dear Esteemed Applicants,

We are pleased to inform you that appointment slots for Guangzhou Visa Application Center (for Guangzhou applicants only) will be released on a weekly basis, every Friday from July 19.

The Consulate General of Brazil in Guangzhou also reminds that:

1. the system for registered agency has already been fully implemented and the following travel agencies/operators have been authorized to directly make appointments on that system and deliver the cases directly to BLS, acting on behalf of applicants:

• Guangdong CTS (广东中旅)
• Genuine Travel (广州旅畅)
• Dista Travel (广州风花雪月国际旅行社) – from July 22
• Guangdong (Foshan) CTS (广东中旅 （佛山）旅行社) – from July 22
• CGZL (广州之旅) – from July 29

2. the consulate encourages all applicants to apply by themselves. Appointments slots are still being released on regular basis on BLS website. Registered agencies should be sought only when the applicant is not available to deliver documents in person or is purchasing a tour package from those companies.

3. those companies are not allowed to offer any type of express visa or booking appointments in exchange for fees, as according to Brazilian Law, there is no “VIP” or “express” visa. They’re solely allowed to charge for their travel consultancy services. All “fapiao” will be checked.

4. the consulate finally reminds that this system is currently available only for the Consulate General of Brazil in Guangzhou and it is solely an instrument to attempt to offer possibilities for the applicants to make appointments and deliver their documents more smoothly. The agencies already registered are acting upon strict control and are subject to being suspended at any time for breaking any rules.

5. the consulate, once more, strongly discourage applicants from seeking any agencies/operators and “huangniu” who offer “express appointment” or “express visa”, as such services do not exist and operators who sell them for profit have been negatively impacting our visa services.

6. the guide about how to apply to act a registered company/agent in Guangzhou is available on the "Important Information" Section, "Important Notice about Submitting Brazilian Visa in Guangzhou" subsection. Please read it carefully before applying.
