Honorary Consul of Germany in Dallas

German consulate in Dallas
An honorary consul is not a consulate general. None of them issue visas, and only some can take a passport application. Fees are paid in cash in US dollars, and applying through one adds 105.00 € to the passport fee.

The honorary consul in Dallas covers Texas, and reports to the Consulate General in Houston. The Federal Foreign Office does not name a supervising mission for this office, so we give the consulate general that covers Texas.

What this office can and cannot do

An honorary consul is a local point of contact, not a consulate general. The work is unpaid and done alongside another job.

The Federal Foreign Office does not say whether this office can take passport applications. That is not the same as saying it cannot: call and ask before assuming you have to travel to Houston.

Visas and German ID cards are outside every honorary consul's powers, here and everywhere else in the country.

Availability depends on the consul's own working week, so an appointment arranged by email is the way in.

How far your consulate general is

The consulate general in Houston is 243 miles from here, roughly 4 h 20 min of driving without traffic. That is a long day out and back, so it is worth confirming by email what can be settled locally first.

What you can settle without travelling

A good part of German paperwork never touches a consulate.

  • 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
