To those who work at the consulate, be kind enough to answer the phone. If someone calls it is because they have an important question. Thank you

Janneth Castellon | Oct 21, 2019
Monica Matthews | Oct 21, 2019

They are not the only consulate with a high influx of calls and visits. But apparently they are one of those who do not know how to distribute the functions. That is why staff are hired for the call center. And do not say that there is no budget since this government spends its time making unnecessary and personal expenses. Not for nothing are we the laughing stock of South America.

I was born in La Paz, and my parents in my adolescence turned me into an American citizen. For work reasons do I need to give up my Bolivian citizenship, what do I need to renounce it? Thanks for the reply

Narda Terán | Oct 21, 2019
Jeanette Antezana | Oct 21, 2019

As far as I know, you do not need to give up and it is useful, particularly, to visit Bolivia. You can keep your identity card in a very personal way. I suggest you visit the Consulate office in Washington, DC, in case you are interested in writing a letter of resignation that should be notarized.

Mario Cabrera Vega | Jul 22, 2022
Marina Arze | Jul 22, 2022

Today, 5/7/22, we asked the people who work there and one said yes: PCR or nose test plus the vaccination card. And the person at the reception said that you don't need to present tests anymore. In the end we do not know, but better to go with proof in case the flies

I am returning to Bolivia but my passport expired in July 2021 How can I get an extension of my passport?

Carlos Quiroga | Feb 22, 2022
Jose Alfredo Rivero | Feb 22, 2022

Carlos come to the Consulate on Connecticut Ave in Washington DC When you enter right in front of you, you have the screen for the different services they offer. Click on the passport renewal option and with a little patience and courtesy on your part you can have your passport on the same day, or within 4 days at the latest. Don't expect courteous treatment. Be patient and have a good trip to Boliva

From the Consulate they sent "directly and electronically" to the Foreign Ministry, the Power of Attorney, but today the Sea Consul gave me the documents indicating THAT THEY WILL NOT DO IT. Is it so? Or did you have any confusion?

Good afternoon, ask what documents do you need to renew the donated passport, how much does it cost and how much time is it delivered?

Kierria Evans | Oct 21, 2019
Pacho Rooez | Oct 21, 2019

The expired passport and 85 dollars and it leaves in about a week and a half... Those who work there are very efficient... the best day to go there is early Friday... that way you get parking at the door and they are metered. .. and there are not many people doing paperwork. Make sure it's not a holiday in either of the two countries... because there they respect holidays in the USA and Bolivia... that is, you don't work!!!

erlan larrea | Oct 21, 2019

How do I have to do to realize a power?

susana garcia | Oct 21, 2019
Luis Salinas | Oct 21, 2019

From my own experience, what I had to do is that someone in Bolivia asks a notary to do an instructive of power (the power itself), they send it to you by email and that document is sent to the consulate by email as well (or in a CD), you have to go in persons with CI or passport and you pay something like 85 us.

Hello, on March 8 of this year I have processed my passport, I just need to know if you are ready to pick up, or if you have already sent it to my address 1006 Woods Ave, Lancaster PA 17603 Thank you.

Maribel Perez | Oct 21, 2019
RAUL PANIAGUA | Oct 21, 2019

It only took a week for them to deliver the new passport, and if you left an envelope with a prepaid stamp for them to send it to you, that takes 10 days to 2 weeks as long as you have explained it to them and have left the envelope (prepaid envelope) good luck Maribel.
