Consulate verification + alternative resource context (2025-2026)

Verify any consulate’s current operating status BEFORE traveling. Official sources:

  • US State Department — Bureau of Consular Affairs: state.gov. The Department’s “Foreign Consular Offices in the United States” list is no longer published — the old policy-issues page now renders a single link and no directory (checked 2026-09-10). For the current list of a country’s consulates, use that country’s embassy in Washington, D.C.
  • Embassy or main consulate of your country in Washington DC — check its own list of consulates
  • Wikipedia “List of diplomatic missions of [Country]” — community-maintained; 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. Embassy phone numbers in DC confirmed on each embassy’s own website (checked 2026-09-24): Colombia 1-202-387-8338, Guatemala 1-202-745-4953, Peru 1-202-833-9860, Argentina 1-202-238-6400 — for other countries, use the number on that embassy’s official website.

For services your home country’s consulate provides (passport renewal, national ID, civil registry, voting from abroad, power of attorney, child registration): consular fees vary by country and service — confirm the current fee on your consulate’s official fee schedule. Required documents and accepted payment methods vary by country and by service — confirm both on your consulate’s official page before your appointment.

For “Find an immigration attorney” referrals when the consulate’s pro-bono network isn’t a fit: see /procedures/find-immigration-attorney/ for AILA-member directories, /procedures/bia-recognized-help-by-state/ for BIA-recognized non-profit options, and /procedures/legal-aid-by-state/ for broader civil legal-aid (housing, family, public benefits). The US Department of State maintains an online directory, Contact Info for Foreign Embassies & Consulates, with contact information for foreign embassies and consulates in the United States.
