History of the U.S embassy and consulates in Rio de Janeiro

The United States established diplomatic relations with Brazil in 1824, shortly after Brazil's independence, marking a long history of cooperation. The relationship deepened through shared democratic values and an alliance during World War II. The U.S. Embassy was initially in Rio de Janeiro, relocating to Brasília after the capital moved, and multiple consulates were established across the country. These missions foster a comprehensive partnership encompassing trade, security, and global issues.
