Brazilian consulates in New Mexico
New Mexico belongs to Houston. Doña Ana, Otero and Luna counties fall in the area of the honorary consulate in El Paso, Texas.
If you live in New Mexico, you depend on one specific Brazilian consulate, and it is not always the one that looks closest on the map.
Which Brazilian consulate covers New Mexico?
The official source is clear: the Consulate General of Brazil in Houston covers New Mexico, and that is where you apply.

What you can settle without going to the consulate
- Fill in the minor’s travel authorisation, have the signature notarised locally and apostilled, with no consulate appointment.
- Take a loss or reacquisition of nationality request to the Ministry of Justice, which does not go through the consulate.
- Apply for a CPF to the Receita Federal by email, with the online form and a selfie holding your ID.
With the consulate identified, the next step is the request in the system, explained on its page.
