An ASC is a facility contracted by the U.S. government to collect biometric data (photo and fingerprints) from visa applicants prior to submission to the consular section. The contractor who operates the ASC also runs the Call Centers that provide other visa-related services, including making visa appointments, answering questions about the application process, collecting other applicant information, and assisting applicants with passport delivery.
Note: As of September 10, operations of the ASC from Alto de pinheiros will be transferred to the ASC of Vila Mariana, at Av. José Maria Whitaker, 370, São Paulo.
