Brazilian consulates in Texas
Texas belongs to Houston, and has two honorary consulates with their own areas: Edinburg, for Hidalgo and Cameron counties, and El Paso, for the west of the state.
Texas is part of a consular jurisdiction published by Itamaraty: this page tells you which.
Which Brazilian consulate covers Texas?
The Consulate General of Brazil in Houston is the one with Texas in the jurisdiction published by Itamaraty.
Within the state there is the honorary office in Edinburg, which does not replace the consulate general.
Texas also has an honorary consulate in El Paso, which advises and helps but issues no passports.

What you can settle without going to the consulate
- Get a US document apostilled by the Secretary of State of the state that issued it.
- Upload the documents for any service on e-Consular and go to the consulate only after validation.
- Fill in the minor’s travel authorisation, have the signature notarised locally and apostilled, with no consulate appointment.
If your city is not in the table, the office is the same: the jurisdiction covers the whole state.
