German passport at the Atlanta consulate

Consulate General of Germany in Atlanta

Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Germany | Marquis Two Tower - Suite 901 | 285 Peachtree Center Avenue, N.E. | Atlanta, GA 30303-1221

Public hours: Monday–Friday 8:30 AM–12 PM

In person at the German Embassy, your responsible Consulate General or certain Honorary Consuls, by appointment. Fingerprints are taken at the appointment, so there is no mail or online application.

Step by step

  1. Find the German mission that covers your state with the Consulate Finder.
  2. Book an appointment online. Passport and ID card applications need separate appointments. The booking system does not work with the Safari browser.
  3. Fill in the application form and gather all original documents.
  4. Attend the appointment in person and give your fingerprints.
  5. Pay the fee by Visa or Mastercard (charged in euros), or by cash or money order in US dollars. Checks are not accepted.
  6. Wait about six to eight weeks for the passport. Some missions ask for a prepaid return envelope; your booking confirmation will say so.
