German consulate in Idaho Falls

There is no German consulate in Idaho Falls. The mission that covers the city is the Consulate General in San Francisco.

Idaho Falls

You cannot apply to a mission that does not cover you. For Idaho that means San Francisco and nowhere else.

Idaho Falls is 831 miles from San Francisco, about 14 h 47 min of driving at posted speed limits and with no traffic. A real journey takes longer than that.

Bonneville County, where Idaho Falls sits, falls entirely within this consular district.

Idaho also has honorary consuls, at Portland, OR. Portland, OR can take passport applications, which may be a much shorter journey than San Francisco.

What you can settle without travelling

Not everything on the German paperwork list needs an appointment.

  • 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
  • Apply for a visa you may not need: a US passport gets you 90 days in Germany without one
  • Find out whether you are German at all: the dates of your family's emigration decide it, and you can work that out from your own records before anyone books an appointment
