Visited here in 2018. The consulate general was a complete psychopath having pleasure taking power trips over visa issuance. I recall visiting here almost near closing time with the office empty and when I was looking around to seek assistance for a tourist visa (with no one there), the consulate general came out from his office and started yelling how I’m not supposed to be there and that this is not a place where I can do whatever I want (like why wasn’t the door locked then?). At one point, he held out my application and threatened that he will rip it apart in front of me and call in the security (for what?). Not sure if he was having a bad day, but why project that emotion to a complete stranger? Must say, I had good experience as a tourist at Bolivia, but the consulate general of Bolivia was very uncivilized in every aspects. The other office personnel were pleasant to deal with :)

It took just 1 week to have my passport! Excellent service and very polite staff. It took me less time than doing it in Bolivia.

I have my birth certificate registered in a family card. How can I get an original (with apostille) of my birth certificate?

Marcel Wechsler | Oct 19, 2021
Sarita Thombs | Oct 19, 2021

You only have to ask for one, your birth certificate must be registered in the civil registry books. Better call, only the consul is working, who sometimes answers the phone, or else go directly without an appointment. Luck

The Bolivian consulate in Can New York help a Bolivian citizen who has an alcohol dependence disease and who has an established business in New York State?

Tokoly Ernesto Herrera | Oct 20, 2019
Javier Fojo | Oct 20, 2019

The truth is not, and I do not think so. I recommend seeking medical help. Find an ambulatory detoxification center. Depending on the medical insurance there are several plans that are available, it would be good to call the number behind the card and ask. May God help you and remember that stopping drinking is a process that requires a lot of help and persistence.

So, the yellow fever vaccine is required for the Bolivia visa or not ? If yes, could I get this vaccine from any hospital ? Could you pls recommend the place where can get the cheapest price for the yellow fever vaccine ?

Prapon Saenngarm | Oct 20, 2018

Yes, you need the yellow fever vaccine. You need to google and call to see where they have it because there's a shortage so the prices are pretty high.

If I go to the consulate, what do I need to bring? How much does a visa cost? What forms of payment do they accept?

Martha Zervas | Oct 20, 2018
Roger Alcocer | Oct 20, 2018

I believe if you go to the consulate you’ll still have to drop off the completed aplication. On their website they have a list of requirements which include a signed sworn statement, passport photo (2x2), passport, etc. As for the cost...it’s currently $160.
