Consulate verification + alternative resource context (2025-2026)

Many foreign-country consulates in the US have closed, consolidated, or shifted operations since 2020 — verify any consulate’s current operating status BEFORE traveling. Official sources:

  • US State Department Foreign Consular Offices Directory: state.gov/foreign-embassies — annually updated, lists all foreign embassies and consulates currently accredited in the US
  • Embassy or main consulate of your country in Washington DC — typically maintains an up-to-date list of all subordinate consulates
  • Wikipedia “List of diplomatic missions of [Country]” — community-maintained, generally accurate but verify against official sources

For consular emergencies (lost passport, arrest, medical emergency, death) while in the US, contact your home country’s embassy in Washington DC by phone — embassies generally have 24/7 emergency lines. Common Hispanic-origin Embassy phone numbers in DC: Mexico 1-202-728-1600, Colombia 1-202-387-8338, El Salvador 1-202-265-9671, Guatemala 1-202-745-4952, Honduras 1-202-966-7702, Peru 1-202-833-9860, Venezuela 1-202-342-2214, Argentina 1-202-238-6400, Ecuador 1-202-234-7200, Cuba 1-202-797-8518.

For services your home country’s consulate provides (passport renewal, national ID, civil registry, voting from abroad, power of attorney, child registration): consular fees range from $25-$200 depending on country and service. Most accept ITIN-only payment. Required documents typically include: current ID, proof of US address, completed application form (per country), and consular fee in money order or accepted form.
