Which French consulate covers Aberdeen?
It is a matter of geography: South Dakota is in the district of the Consulate General of France in Chicago, and so is Aberdeen.
Chicago is 702 miles from Aberdeen by road, so the Registre decides the plan: on it, one long trip, and the passport is mailed back if you provide a FedEx Express Saver label; off it, a second journey just to collect it, by appointment.
The ID card is never mailed, and no honorary consul of the Chicago district with a published office is within 250 miles of Aberdeen: count on two trips for it.
