Brazil Embassy Vienna

Before your visit

The embassy’s address is Pestalozzigasse 4/2 in Vienna’s 1st district (Innere Stadt).

Who runs the Brazilian Embassy?

Eduardo Paes Saboia has served as Brazilian ambassador to Austria since July 2025. The Austrian Foreign Ministry’s diplomatic list names 8 accredited diplomats. Separate from the embassy, Brazil keeps a permanent mission to the United Nations and other international organisations in Vienna; those missions do not handle consular matters for the public.

Embassy or honorary consulate?

The consular section in Vienna is responsible for Brazilian citizens in all of Austria. Four honorary consulates (Bregenz, Graz, Linz and Salzburg) can help with information and some formalities, but passports are normally issued by the embassy.

Consular services

Typical consular services include:

• Powers of attorney and other notarial acts
• Citizenship and residence register matters

Requirements change from time to time – confirm them before you collect documents.

Documents checklist

The most frequent applications and the documents the Brazilian authorities ask for:
