Frequently asked questions

Which cities have foreign embassies in United Kingdom?

This directory lists posts in London, City of Westminster, Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh, Mayfair, Belfast, Manchester, and 7 more. In United Kingdom, many countries keep an embassy in the capital and consulates in cities such as City of Westminster and Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and Edinburgh.

What is the difference between an embassy and a consulate?

An embassy (or high commission) is the main diplomatic post, almost always in the capital. A consulate is a satellite office that often handles visas, passports, and everyday consular work for residents of that region.

Can any embassy in United Kingdom help me with a visa?

No. You apply at the embassy or consulate of the country you intend to visit, not at a random foreign office. Use this directory to find the right country’s posts in United Kingdom.

Is this the same as an official government list?

No. This is a Visa Boards directory for travellers. Confirm addresses, hours, and visa rules on each official embassy or consulate website before you visit.

Contact details can change. Prefer each embassy or consulate website for appointments and hours.
