Frequently asked questions

Embassies and consulates FAQ

What is the difference between an embassy and a consulate?

An embassy is generally a country’s principal diplomatic mission in another country. Consulates focus more heavily on consular matters and may operate in cities outside the national capital.

What is a High Commission?

A High Commission is the diplomatic mission used between Commonwealth countries. Its role is broadly comparable to that of an embassy.

Where are foreign embassies in Canada located?

Resident foreign embassies and High Commissions in Canada are based in Ottawa. Consular posts are located in cities across the country.

Which Canadian cities have many foreign consulates?

Toronto and Montreal are major centres for foreign consular representation. Vancouver and Calgary also host substantial numbers of consular posts.

Can I apply for a visa at every embassy or consulate?

No. Visa procedures and available services differ by country and mission. Some applications are handled by diplomatic missions, while others use external application centres or online systems. Always check the official instructions for the country concerned.

Do I need an appointment to visit an embassy or consulate?

Appointment requirements vary by mission and service. Many consular services require an appointment in advance, so visitors should check the mission’s official website or contact the mission before travelling.

Are embassy and consulate contact details always current?

Diplomatic and consular contact information can change. This directory uses official sources where possible, but visitors should check the relevant official embassy, consulate or government website before travelling.
