Although, as mentioned above, Catholic Church cardinals have benefited from this concession, other religious institutions recognized by the Brazilian state are not excluded from the application for diplomatic passports and indeed other evangelical representatives, such as controversial pastor Edir Macêdo, leader of Brazil's Igreja Universal (Universal Church) have received diplomatic passports in the past. 
Ingawa, kama ilivyotajwa awali, Makadinali wa Kanisa Katoliki wamekuwa wakinufaika na takwa hilo la kikatiba, taasisi nyingine za kidini zinazotambuliwa na serikali ya Brazil hazijatengwa katika kuomba pasipoti za kidiplomasia na hata wakuu wengine wa madhehebu ya kiprotestanti, kama mchungaji ambaye ni vigumu kueleweka kirahisi Edir Macêdo, kiongozi wa Kanisa la Ulimwengu (Igreja Universal) walipokea pasipoti za kidiplomasia siku za nyuma.
