Honorary Consulates
Chicago is home to more than 20 honorary consulates and nearly 50 consulates general!
Honorary consular officers perform consular services on a part-time basis and usually have full-time employment in addition to part-time consular duties. For that reason, many of the honorary consulate addresses listed below will be the officer's full-time employer or the officer's home. Please call or email to make an appointment before going to the addresses listed below.
It is also important to note that the services an honorary consular officer provides are limited compared to services provided by full-time consular officers working at a consulate general.
