The Consulate General of the United Kingdom in São Paulo is part of the diplomatic mission of the United Kingdom in Brazil. It is located on Rua Ferreira de Araújo, a street in Pinheiros district. The current British Consul General in São Paulo is Richard Turner, appointed to the post in April 2009.[1]

History

The first British Consulate General in Brazil was opened in downtown São Paulo in 1966, long after the beginning of UK-Brazil relations in 1808.[2]

Over its history, the Consulate General has operated at three different addresses across the city. Between 1967 and 1995, it was located on the corner with Rua Frei Caneca on the Avenida Paulista, the most famous business, culture and leisure avenue in the city, and between 1995 and 2000 at the blue glass building behind Casa das Rosas (Av. Paulista no 37).[2]

In 2000, the Consulate General moved to its present location at the Brazilian British Centre - at Rua Ferreira de Araújo, 741, Pinheiros. The CBB was built by the Cultura Inglesa São Paulo to bring together, under one roof, all the organisations and activities related to culture, education, leisure and trade between Brazil and the United Kingdom.[2]

Many visitors from the British Government and Royal Family representatives have been to São Paulo to promote cooperation agreements, social projects and commercial partnerships. In 1968, Brazilians received the visit of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, who announced the launch of the first British Industry Fair in Brazil. The event took place in Ibirapuera Park in São Paulo and was a huge success. In 2007 alone, there were six high-level visitors: Prince Andrew, Duke of York, Princess Anne, Princess Royal, Lord Mayor John Stuttard, Lord Peter Levene (president of Lloyd's of London), Martin Broughton (president of the Confederation of British Industry and president of British Airways) and Andrew Cahn, CEO of UK Trade and Investment.[2]

Other locations in Brazil

Outside of São Paulo, there are British Consulates General in Rio de Janeiro and Recife, as well as the Embassy of the United Kingdom, in Brasilia.[3]
