The Nicaragua Consulate-General located in New York City, New York is one of only three Nicaraguan consular offices in the United States listed in the US State Department’s consular-notification directory (archived copy dated April 30, 2026); the other two are the Embassy in Washington, D.C. and the Consulate-General in Miami.

Contact information

Correction, October 10, 2026: this table previously showed a phone number, an e-mail address and a street address taken from OpenStreetMap, and we removed them. The phone differs from the US State Department listing for Nicaragua’s New York consular office, which gives (212) 986-6562 (archived copy dated April 30, 2026); that listing gives no e-mail for New York. It also gives no street address.

Available services

We found no official Nicaraguan page that lists this office’s services (October 10, 2026). The Nicaraguan procedures our step-by-step guides document, from Nicaraguan law and agency pages, are listed under “Consular procedures — step-by-step guides” below. One open point from those guides: Nicaragua’s consular fee law (Ley 710) provides for a carné consular; we could not confirm that US consulates issue it today (October 3, 2026). Confirm with the office by phone that it handles your procedure before you travel.

How to verify current address, phone, and hours

  1. Call the office at (212) 986-6562, the number in the US State Department’s directory (archived copy dated April 30, 2026). We could not read an official Nicaraguan consular directory: on October 10, 2026 the foreign-ministry domain cancilleria.gob.ni had no address record in a DNS check, and the other official Nicaraguan sites we tried that day (migob.gob.ni, migracion.gob.ni, embanic.org) did not return a usable page
  2. If you cannot reach New York, call the Embassy in Washington, D.C. at (202) 939-6570 or (202) 939-6531
  3. Ask for the office hours and whether you need an appointment; we found no official source that publishes either for this office
