Available services

Requirements and fees are set by the country's authority, not by each office. Each guide details them with a source, or explains where to confirm them when no figure can be published.

Before you go

  1. Book your appointment

    Most services require an appointment. Book on the official portal, never through intermediaries.

  2. Gather your documents

    Check the requirements for your service and bring originals and copies separately.

  3. Reconfirm and arrive early

    Check hours and closures the day before. A home-country holiday is the most common cause of a wasted trip.

Practical questions before you go

Short answers based on the jurisdiction, channels and hours documented in this record.

Are visas for travel to El Salvador processed here?

Yes, visas for foreign nationals who need them are handled through the embassy's consular section in Washington, not at the regional consulates. Contact them first for requirements and fees.

I live in Silver Spring — can I come to the embassy?

Your regular office is the Silver Spring consulate, created precisely for Maryland. The embassy's consular section mainly serves District residents and cases with a diplomatic component.

What are the consular section's hours?

Available references indicate Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, slightly different from the rest of the network (8:00–4:00). Confirm when booking on the official portal.

Office-specific notes

  • It operates inside the embassy's historic building on the 16th Street diplomatic corridor, near Dupont Circle and Scott Circle.
  • Sharing a roof with the embassy, it is the reference point for matters requiring diplomatic handling, including visas to travel to El Salvador, which the regional consulates do not process.
  • If you live in the Maryland or Virginia suburbs, your regular office is Silver Spring or Woodbridge; this one mainly covers the District.
