Embassy of Venezuela in Washington, District of Columbia

The address historically associated with the Venezuela Embassy in Washington, District of Columbia has served the Venezuelan community in District of Columbia and, in some cases, neighboring states. Whether this office is currently open to the public and processing routine consular services should be confirmed before you rely on it (see the status note below).

Status as of October 10, 2026: we found no official notice that any Venezuelan consular office in the US is open for services. Venezuela and the United States agreed on March 5, 2026 to re-establish diplomatic and consular relations (statements by Venezuela’s foreign ministry, MPPRE, and the US State Department). On September 12, 2026, Venezuela’s state broadcaster RNV reported that the New York consulate had been renovated but that the authorities had not yet issued an official statement setting a date for its opening to the public or enabling its appointment system. On October 10, 2026, MPPRE’s own lists still showed no office in the United States: its consulate selector (“Seleccionar Consulado de Venezuela en el Mundo”) listed 25 consulates, none in the US, and its embassy selector (“Seleccione una Embajada de Venezuela en el Mundo”) had no entry for the United States of America. Treat the contact details below as historical reference and confirm current availability through official Venezuelan government channels. See the 10-year passport validity rule and current routes.

What official Venezuelan sources say about Washington (checked October 16, 2026)

  • Mission arrival (MPPRE article dated 27-03-2026): Venezuela’s foreign ministry reported that Vice Minister Oliver Blanco and chargé d’affaires Félix Plasencia were in Washington “para la instalación de la misión en los EEUU” (to install the mission in the US). Plasencia was quoted: “Aquí estamos un grupo de funcionarios para atender los asuntos que les interesan a los venezolanos”. The article gives no address, phone, hours, fees or appointment system, and does not announce the opening of consular services to the public. Read the MPPRE article.
  • Relations (MPPRE communiqué, March 5, 2026): both governments “han decidido restablecer sus relaciones diplomáticas y consulares”.
  • Embassy list (checked October 16, 2026): the embassy selector (“Seleccione una Embajada de Venezuela en el Mundo”) has no entry for the United States.
  • Consulate list (checked October 16, 2026): the consulate selector (“Seleccionar Consulado de Venezuela en el Mundo”) lists 25 consulates, none in the United States.
