Document Return by DHL

If you would like your documents returned via DHL, please follow these steps:

  1. Prior to your appointment at the Embassy, go to the DHL location in El Polo, located just across the street from the Embassy.  Call to confirm current business and lunch hours before you go.

  2. Bring the guide to your appointment, and be sure to retain your tracking number from the envelope.  We will mail your documents back to you once they are ready – saving you another trip to the Embassy!

Document pickup option

Please note that the contract for delivery of the documents is between you and the delivery service.  The Embassy cannot be responsible for documents which may be lost in transit.

If you prefer to pick up your documents from the Embassy in person, you may still do so without an appointment on Fridays, from 08:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.

Please Note: To use a delivery service, the Embassy must cancel your previous passport at the time of application.  Generally, new passports will arrive within 2-3 weeks.  If you are unwilling to have your previous passport cancelled at the time of application, you will not be able to use the DHL delivery option.
