States hosting a diplomatic mission of Brazil

This is a list of diplomatic missions of the Federative Republic of Brazil, excluding Honorary Consulates.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Brazil was established by Emperor Pedro I in 1823, shortly after the independence of Brazil.

Brazil maintains diplomatic relations with all 193 member states of the United Nations, in addition to United Nations General Assembly observers Holy See, Palestine and Order of Malta,[1] as well as the Cook Islands,[2] and Niue,[3] and unofficial relations with Taiwan. The country has a large global network of 133 resident diplomatic missions, 1 commercial office, 1 representative office and several missions to multilateral organizations.[4]

In Brazil, Itamaraty is generally used as a metonymy for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The name stems from that of the palaces in Rio de Janeiro and Brasília, former and present headquarters of the Ministry.
