What you can settle without travelling

Part of what people drive to a consulate for does not need one.

  • Order a German birth, marriage or death certificate: the registry office of the German town where it happened issues it, and most of them take an online or postal request
  • 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

For a passport, Boston is both closer and the only option: neither Portland nor any other New England honorary office is listed as able to take the application.
