Since July 2015, the Consulate General in Toronto is the only German mission in Canada to offer comprehensive consular services.

The Consulate General in Vancouver continues to offer most consular services

The Embassy in Ottawa and the Consulate General in Montreal have ceased to offer consular services altogether.

Employees of the Consulate General in Toronto may offer limited consular services for German citizens living in Quebec in the premises of the Consulate General in Montreal several times each year during the off-season (fall to early spring).

The next consular days will take place at the German Consulate General Montreal from October 16th 2023 until October 18th 2023. The service is only available for persons residing in the province of Québec.

Only applications for the following types of passports can be submitted:

• Biometric passports, provided that the last passport expired less than 5 years ago and there have been no changes in citizenship or name in the meantime.

In all other situations (e.g. if your passport has already expired for more than 5 years, if you are applying for the first time for a minor child or if you want to apply for a new passport after changing your name in connection with a marriage), you must continue to submit your passport application to the passport office for passport questions the responsible Consulate General in Toronto.

At this stage, passport appointments are fully booked.

The Consulates General in Montréal and in Toronto endeavour to offer consular weeks in the future as well. As soon as the time for the next consular week is determined, it will be published here on our website together with information about the booking of appointments. We kindly ask for your understanding that we are not yet able to communicate the timing of the next consular week and that no waiting lists can be kept. For any consular matter you might wish to settle in the meantime, the Consulate General in Toronto shall be glad to assist you.
