Visa & travel tips

  • Book ahead. Most embassy consular sections require an online appointment for passports and visas; walk-in hours, if any, are limited.
  • Check jurisdiction. An embassy consular section 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.
  • Expect security screening and bring a government-issued photo ID. Large bags are often not allowed.
