What you can settle without travelling
Part of what people drive to a consulate for does not need one.
- Get a certificate of conduct: the Federal Office of Justice handles it; any US notary public can notarize your signature on the form
- Get a document apostilled: for a US document it is the Secretary of State of the issuing state; no German mission can do it
- Send in a life certificate for your pension: there is a free digital route with a QR code, and a bank or a police station can sign the paper one
There is no German office in the territory. Everything runs through San Francisco, and the practical route is email first, because a trip means two flights.
