French consulate in Greenwich

A French consulate in Greenwich? There is none. Residents are served by the Consulate General of France in New York, 30 miles away by road (48 min).

Which French consulate covers Greenwich?

Since Connecticut belongs to the district of the Consulate General of France in New York, that is the office for Greenwich.

For a passport, Greenwich is 30 miles from New York: one trip if you are on its Registre, since New York mails the new passport home if you provide FedEx Express (category E only) or a USPS Priority Mail or Priority Mail Express envelope with tracking; otherwise a second short trip to collect it, by appointment.

The ID card is never mailed, and no honorary consul of the New York district with a published office is within 250 miles of Greenwich: count on two trips for it.
