What is the change? The Brazilian Consulate in London is closed because of damage to the building.
What does the change mean? The closure will suspend regular services, and visa applicants should expect delays.
Background: The Consulate General of Brazil in London closed and suspended regular services April 14, citing structural damage to its building. Emergency cases will be handled by the Brazilian Embassy in London.
BAL Analysis: Applicants whose visas cannot be collected should prepare for immediate delays. If the closure is lengthy, a possible backlog of cases may develop and applicants may have to adjust their travel plans.
