What you can settle without travelling

Some of this does not need the consulate at all.

  • 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
  • Track a passport that is already in progress: it is printed in Berlin and the six to eight weeks are set there, not at the counter that took your application

This is an independent directory of German consular offices in the United States. It is not operated by the Federal Foreign Office or by any German mission. Fees, opening hours and requirements change: always confirm them with the office before you travel.
