Visa & travel tips

Book ahead. Most San Francisco Bay Area consulates require an online appointment for passports and visas; walk-in hours, if any, are limited.
Check jurisdiction. A consulate serves a defined consular district (often several states). Confirm on the official website that this office serves your place of residence.
Prepare documents. Bring originals and copies, passport photos in the exact required format, and certified translations where asked.
Consider e-visas. Many countries now issue e-visas or visas on arrival, which can save you a trip to the consulate.
