Frequently asked questions

Which cities have foreign embassies in United States?

This directory lists posts in Washington, Washington, D.C., San Francisco, New York City, Los Angeles, Houston, Manhattan, Atlanta, and 28 more. In United States, many countries keep an embassy in the capital and consulates in cities such as Washington, D.C. and San Francisco and New York City.

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 States 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 States.

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.
