It is also recommended that candidates have sufficient command of the Italian language.

The operating expenses of the consular office are the responsibility of the office holder, as provided for in article 72 of the same decree.

Another requirement is the candidate's residence in the city where the office will be based, in this case, Goiânia. (Photo: Depositphotos)
