Rio de Janeiro: the capital of Brazil for nearly 400 years, home to iconic beaches and vistas, to the world-renowned Carnival, the birthplace of samba and bossa nova and second largest regional economy in the country. Rio is all of this and much more.

I am very proud to represent Canada in the Cidade Maravilhosa (the Marvellous City). The Consulate General in Rio de Janeiro is part of a network of six offices of the Government of Canada in Brazil, which is Canada’s most extensive network of offices in South America. My role as Consul General includes responsibility for the States of Minas Gerais and Espirito Santo, which I plan to visit on a regular basis during my mandate. Our team includes a that works to support Canadian companies doing business in the all-important state of Minas Gerais.

One of the key roles of the Consulate General in Rio de Janeiro is to offer consular services to Canadian citizens residing and visiting in this part of Brazil’s Southeast. Visa services for visitors and immigrants to Canada are offered exclusively through the Consulate General in São Paulo, which is responsible for the visa and immigration programs in Brazil as a whole.

Of equal importance is the Consulate General’s work representing Canada’s wide range of commercial interests in the states of Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais and Espirito Santo. As these three States account for more than 20% of Brazil’s GDP, our Consulate General has a dedicated team of Trade Commissioners delivering a full range of services to Canadian clients and partners, whether it be export market development, investment attraction to Canada, facilitation for Canadians investing in Brazil or fostering bilateral linkages in innovation, and science & technology. The focuses on deepening trade links in energy, including renewable energy; oil & gas; ocean technologies; creative technologies and education. Our focuses on mining and education. Please contact our trade team for assistance.

People to-people ties and linkages are essential to fostering a vibrant bilateral relationship and the Consulate General will continue to pursue Canada’s foreign policy priorities by putting democracy, human rights, gender equality, peace and security, international law, and environmental protection at the centre of its actions.

I invite you to take a look at our website, a window into Canada from Brazil, and also to follow us on Facebook , on X (Twitter)  and on Instagram .
