Payment of consular fees
It is not possible to make payments in cash at any time, even on the day of your appointment; the employees of the Embassy are not authorized to receive cash from the applicants. It is also not possible to postpone any payments until after your appointment.
*****
NOTE: AS OF SEPTEMBER 1, 2024, THE CONSULAR SECTION WILL BEGIN IMPLEMENTING AN ONLINE PAYMENT SOLUTION. APPLICANTS WHO HAVE ALREADY PROCURED A MANAGER'S CHEQUE CAN STILL PAY WITH THAT FORMAT.
RECEIVING THE PAYMENT LINK: WHEN FILLING OUT THE APPOINTMENT REQUEST ON THE E-CONSULAR PORTAL, IN THE PAYMENT FIELD THE USER MAY CHOOSE TO UPLOAD A COPY OF THE MANAGER'S CHECK OR TO LEAVE THE FIELD BLANK SO THAT THE PAYMENT LINK IS SENT WHEN THE REQUEST IS SUCCESSFULLY PROCESSED BY THE EMBASSY TEAM.
*****
From September 7, 2023, payments of Consular Fees for all services available on the E-Consular platform will be accepted exclusively through a "Manager's Cheque" (the equivalent to a money order in the UAE), in AED, named to: "Embassy of Brazil", and with the name of the service applicant identical to the name of the applicant entered in the E-Consular system.
Payment by deposit or bank transfer to any Embassy accounts will not be accepted, nor will cash, personal checks, credit cards or other forms of payment be accepted.
A separate payment order will be required for each service performed. A combined amount for all consular services in a single manager's cheque will not be accepted.
To issue your "Manager's Cheque ", go to the bank branch of your choice and request the service in the amounts of each payment for each consular service requested.
IMPORTANT ALERTS
The payment of consular fees does not automatically grant you any rights concerning a consular document or service. The Embassy may decline to issue your document if you do not present all the necessary documentation and information; do not comply with the Embassy’s regulations; or in case of exceptional situations.
On the day of your appointment, you must present the original Manager's Cheque document for payment of the consular fees, along with the rest of the documents required for your service.
Please make sure to pay the correct amount required for your service. If you pay less than the amount required, you will not be able to book an appointment until you pay the difference.
Under no circumstances will the Embassy return any payments, even in case of mistakes or cancellations.
FAQ:
1. What is a Manager's Cheque?
Manager's cheque is a bank payment order. Similar to administrative checks, they are backed by payment in cash at the time of purchase at the bank and can only be cashed by the beneficiary listed on it (in this case, the Embassy of Brazil).
2. What do I need to do to purchase a Manager's cheque?
Simply go to the bank of your choice and request it for the specific amount of the desired consular service. Remember: a manager's cheque for each consular service, as already implemented by several other Brazilian Embassies and Consulates.
3. How can I purchase a Manager's cheque?
As they are pre-backed payment orders, manager's cheques as a rule, can only be purchased in cash. Remember to bring cash to the bank in order to be able to purchase it.
4. Is there no exception?
No. In order for the Embassy's accounting-financial management to be carried out equally for everyone, there are no exceptions.
5. I already paid before September 7th in another way, what now?
Payments made before September 7th for services already requested on E-consular will be accepted. Not after that date.
