Scheduling an Appointment for Passport Services, Consular Reports of Birth Abroad, and Notary Services
When scheduling the appointment you should make a note of the following:
- The appointment confirmation number generated.
- The date and time for your appointment. You will NOT receive email confirmation of the appointment date.
- The appointment password. You will require the password if you need to cancel the appointment. No record of your password is kept at the Embassy.
You are not required to present a printout of the confirmation sheet on the day of the appointment as your name will be on the access list for that day, although you may wish to keep a copy for your records. Please ensure that you arrive at the Embassy 15-20 minutes prior to your appointment time to allow time for security check, otherwise we may need to cancel your appointment. You will not be able to enter the Embassy, if you arrive more than 30 minutes . If you arrive more than 30 minutes late, you will be asked to reschedule your appointment.
Read the information on the Embassy website to prepare for your appointment.
To book an appointment, please follow this link. Each applicant requiring a service at the Embassy must have a separate appointment.
