Extremely helpful and professional, especially Soledad and Fernanda, if ypu make an appointment and get there on time, the whole passport and Id processing takes less than 20 minutes.

I have received the worst service from the people that work there. There are rude and non professional. In addition they don’t do things properly the first time. Many friends have had the same experience and this is why I am speaking out. If you have experienced the same write a complain in the Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores. This mistreatment has to stop! We deserve to be treated with courtesy and respect! I must add that I found out my identification card (célula de identidad) which they renewed and mail to me in November, was not activated. I found out the hard way a couple weeks ago (March) after I had to use it for a transaction! There incompetence is beyond my understanding. Another complain was posted in the Ministerio de Relaciones Exterior. Hopefully they will do something about it. It’s time! 😡

Today I had a terrible experience at Vancouver's consulate, the same document my husband did in Los Angeles last week, which I tipped one document for my husband and exactly the same for me to get AFP funds in Chile. In LA cost him US$5 and it was ready in 1 day but in Vancouver cost me US$35 ($47 Canadienses) and it was ready in one week. I was so upset! ... I congratulate this team, for me it is always easy to communicate (by email) and the documents are always on time.

Today my son headed to the consulate to renew his passport. Unfortunately he didn't know he was supposed to make an appointment, since Covid19 hit us. Despite of it, they did accept his application (since as always, they didn't have anyone on the waiting room) As expected he was treated poorly by on of their employees. Making him feel like at home. What is it gonna take for them to treat their fellow chilean citizens better. Shame on them

That I have known that they attend super badly, instead in Miami people are so different, they attend you immediately, with a friendly smile .. Los Angeles attends super badly ,,, what hurts ,, people would not want to work there if not It has Education, I'm sorry for the Chileans that we live in this country

Terrible to see how the scoundrels that work here earn in dollars for doing nothing ... poorly educated and lazy. Q There is no internet, you have to go before 11am, they close when they want and without warning and their attention is PESIMAA! closed for

Devi San Martin | Aug 22, 2020

John, you posted your comment as a question few will see, I recommend you put a review. I know that they attend until 1 pm and if they closed before there must be some compelling reason, but if you have a complaint, I believe in some government website, foreign relations I think, it should be. If they get paid in dollars it can result in an advantage over other Chileans, but they live here and I don't see how it could be otherwise. In 20 years living in the US, we have, my wife have children, many times in need of the services of this consulate and we have always been courteously and efficiently served. I understand your annoyance with your attitude that is typical of the Chilean public official. It is part of the idiosyncrasy and is one of the reasons why I left Chile. In the US the concept of customer service is crucial but if you go to any public services office you will be treated in the same way, for example, DMV ....

Elizabeth, you're not asking to the consulate but Google and I'm just a guide no consulate employee. I recommend you to call to the consulate, if they no answer, on the recorded answer you can learn about their email address.

Hello. I am a US citizen that was living as a permanent resident of Chile1981-1984. My daughter was born there and had both US and Chilean citizenship and passports. Can her children born in the US also obtain Chilean citizenship? Age deadline? MD

Dear Google user. You're not asking to the consulate but Google and we're just Google guides. Call direct to the consulate, leave message or send an email.

How long does it take to give the consular registration

marcos jovino duarte ortiz | Aug 23, 2019
Alonso Lopez | Aug 23, 2019

You can obtain Chilean identity card and passport. The consulate of Chile does not grant consular registration

If it's your maiden name then you'd need to bring something like a marriage license to establish the legal name change.

Why? The Chilean consulate in Los Angeles, California, never responds to phone calls, messages left on tape recorder, much less responds to email. Why will they receive a salary?

victoria ojeda | Aug 22, 2021
Vale Isa | Aug 22, 2021

If they respond, in my case if they responded, just look at the opening hours!

Does my husband need an appointment to get a passport and identification card? or do we just do what the recording says go Monday thru Friday just want to make sure Since COVID we will be traveling from Utah so we want to make sure.

Kylie Benavides | Aug 22, 2021
Hernan Cuevas | Aug 22, 2021

Due to Covid, they are working by appointment only. You need to request an appointment via email. They answered within 48 hours. The process is fairly expedite at the Consulate. I did it. The documents arrived by mail to my home about 3 weeks later.

Will they be open on Monday, December 7? I have urgent documents to apostille

Pillina Gonzalez | Aug 22, 2021
sandra astorga | Aug 22, 2021

We went without an appointment and they treated us, but they attend VERY BAD. One thinks that because you go to the embassy of your country they will attend you with kindness but it is the opposite.

Devi San Martin | Aug 22, 2020

Sr, or lady, you're not asking to the consulate but Google and I'm just a guide. I'm a chilean and USA citizen too and traveled on 2017, and just past November one of my sons travel with his wife, he's naturalized USA citizen and she is born on the states and neither me or them had to pay entering to Chile.

What time do you close tomorrow, January 2?

fernanda garcia | Aug 22, 2020
Devi San Martin | Aug 22, 2020

Fernanda you're not asking the consulate but Google, I'm just a guide. Lonque is that they always close at 1 pm. I recommend you call and there you will hear a message with The schedules.

Cristian Vargas | Aug 22, 2020
Devi San Martin | Aug 22, 2020

Google user, you are not asking the consulate but Google and our answers are not official. What I know is that you need to bring something, even if it has expired, to identify you, identity card or passport, they will charge you US $ 12. I recommend you call them or send an email.

How to renew my identity card

Cristian Vargas | Aug 22, 2020
Devi San Martin | Aug 22, 2020

Dear Google user, you are not asking the consulate but Google and I am just a Google guide, my answer is just my experience. Only go with your old card or passport even if they are expired, you pay around US $ and leave an envelope with the postage paid and your duration so that after 30 days they send it to you. For an official response I recommend you call, leave a message or send an email.

Hi, I need to know if the Los Angeles Consulate will receive 'public on November 26-27 and 29, 2019

jubica Bowers | Aug 22, 2020
Devi San Martin | Aug 22, 2020

Hi Jubila, you're asking Google not the consulate. I recommend you call them or send an email. My opinion is that those days the consulate will attend as usual as it is not a holiday, only on Thanksgiving Thursday I think they will close.

X please can you answer me thanks

Maria Fernandois | Aug 22, 2020
Devi San Martin | Aug 22, 2020

What is your question Maria? Here you are not talking. With the consulate, I recommend you call, leave a message or send an email, hours ago it was closed and now they are busy in the morning

Good morning ..... I need to know if they will be open on Friday, November 1st ... I need to travel from Utah and I don't want to get there and be closed .... I call and nobody answers ...

Teresa E Morales | Aug 22, 2020
Devi San Martin | Aug 22, 2020

Teresa, you are not asking the consulate but Google, call again, leave a message, listen to the recording and write down the email, write them and they will answer you, I think they close the Chilean holidays.

Hi. I am Chilean and enter the United States with my parents and student visa, I am a minor and I am 17 years old. I have to travel from Colorado to California without my parents. In addition to passport, do I need other documentation? Thank you

Francisco Leal | Aug 22, 2020
Devi San Martin | Aug 22, 2020

Francisco, you're asking Google and I'm just a guide. Call the consulate directly. I don't think they give you an answer because your question is related to US laws. My opinion is that you do not need more than the passport and just in case a written authorization from one of your parents. Of course, I am assuming you are still legal, if you are not, and you travel overland, be careful. If by plane, ask on the airline.

To renew the passport ... do I need to take the photos or take them out there at the consulate?

Teresa E Morales | Aug 22, 2020
Devi San Martin | Aug 22, 2020

Teresa, you're not asking the consulate but Google and I'm a Google guide. I recommend calling directly, if they do not answer (most likely) leave a message, send an email. I have never renewed my passport but I think they take your picture there.

Is there still a reciprocity tax between Chile and the USA? I mean entering Chile with a US passport

Hernan Rivera | Aug 22, 2020
Devi San Martin | Aug 22, 2020

Hernan, you're not asking the consulate but Google and I'm just a Google guide, by Chilean chance, a US citizen, living for about 20 years, in the US. I went to Chile 2 years ago with a US passport and did not pay that tax, but as I told you it is only my word. I recommend you call the consulate, leave a message and / or your email.

I want to travel to Santiago, I have a US passport, the purpose of my trip is to visit the family for 2 weeks. What documents do I need?

Martha Barrios | Aug 23, 2019
Devi San Martin | Aug 23, 2019

Martha, how are you asking the consulate but Google and guides how I just give an opinion, ok? If you have a US passport you need nothing more to travel to Chile. I recommend you call or send a consulate email. If they do not answer, as usual, dena message there they give you the email.

I am a US citizen but im also Chilean citizen. I lost my chilean passport and my chilean ID Expired. I do not live near a consulate. I want to move to chile. Would i be able to just show my chilean id even thoug is expired? Or what should I do?

Johanna Cornejo | Aug 23, 2019
Devi San Martin | Aug 23, 2019

Jo, you're not asking to the consulate but Google maps and I'm just a Google guide so my answers are mere comments but no official ones. As you I'm a us citizen and Chilean born, you need a passport to travel to Chilean as a Chilean or travel as an US citizen with this country passport. Even you id is expired you can ask them an emergency passport valid just to enter to Chile.. I recommend you call directly and if nobody answer leave message and st the same time email them with your question. They can tell.you where is the nearest consulate office or one that travels around the country. Call first.

Is there parking near the consulate?

Tania Segal | Aug 23, 2019
Devi San Martin | Aug 23, 2019

The building has an underground parking ... a bit expensive. The trick is to park in the store 99 cents in front ...

The service provided to us was excellent, Ms. Romero very kindly gave me a lot of support I was checking several days and I always answer all the questions very kindly. The process we are doing is a student visa.
