The U.S. Embassy in Berlin offers a full range of services for American citizens in the states of Berlin, Brandenburg, Bremen, Hamburg, Lower Saxony, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Schleswig-Holstein and Thuringia.

The final construction stages of the brand new U.S. Consular Section, within the redesigned Clayallee building in Berlin, Germany, are underway.  This means that, beginning January 14th and continuing until further notice, all U.S. consular services will be available at the U.S. Consulate General Frankfurt and U.S. Consulate General Munich only.  Nonimmigrant visa appointments will not be scheduled in Berlin, nor will the Berlin Consular Section be able to accept walk-in appointments.  Diplomatic visas will continue to be processed in Berlin.

Any U.S. citizen in need of passport, citizenship, or notary services should make an appointment at the U.S. Consulate General Frankfurt or the U.S. Consulate General Munich.
