French consulate in San Bernardino

San Bernardino sits in a French consular district without an office in the city itself. Its consulate is the Consulate General of France in Los Angeles: 73 miles by road, about 1 h 31 min at the speed limit.

Which French consulate covers San Bernardino?

The split of California is not published county by county, but San Bernardino County appears in the Los Angeles security plan, so San Bernardino is Los Angeles territory.

How many trips? The application is filed in person at Los Angeles, 73 miles from San Bernardino by road. Registered on its Registre, that trip is enough: bring a FedEx Express Saver label and the passport comes to you. Otherwise the pickup is a second trip, by appointment.

For the ID card, which never travels by mail, ask when you apply for the handover by the honorary consul in San Diego (8525 Gibbs Drive, Suite 304, 90 miles from San Bernardino in a straight line), if that consul is authorized; it costs $11.35 (€10).
