Embassy, Consulates and Consular Offices in the United States
The words “consul” and “consulate” originated with the Romans. Today they mean “regional Embassy.”
There is a Japanese Embassy in Washington D.C. whose primary mission is to interact with the United States Federal Government at the National level. The Embassy also provides regional support for the District of Columbia.
Also, there are “Regional Japanese Embassies” or “Consulates” in the United States. The mission of these Consulates is similar to that of the main embassy except that each consulate is responsible for a certain geographic part of the United States, and their focus is on regional and local issues rather than national.
We invite you to view the pages of the Japanese Embassy and any Consulates you like. Each consulate has a different approach to presenting their information to you.
If you need help with visas, certificates, or forms you will likely visit or telephone the Consulate which has responsibility for the area in which you live or work.
