Honorary consuls in this state

An honorary consul is a local contact point, not a counter: the post issues no passports and no visas and cannot notarise a document. For that you still go to the consulate general.

    What you can settle without going

  • You can register your address abroad through ORR net instead of at the counter.
  • You can download and fill in the passport application form before your appointment.
  • You can have the Certificate of Eligibility applied for in Japan by your sponsor.

    • If you only need a certificate or a registration, check whether it can travel by mail before you plan the drive.
