Guatemalan Consulate in Portland, Oregon

The Guatemalan consulate nearest Portland

The only Guatemalan consulate with jurisdiction over Oregon is the one in the Seattle area, in the South Tower building at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.

Oregon comes under the Seattle consulate

Oregon has no Guatemalan consular office of its own. The Guatemalan Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MINEX) has assigned the entire state to the Seattle (SeaTac) office. That includes Portland, Salem, Eugene, Medford, Bend and every other city. If you live in Oregon and need a passport, the DPI or another consular service, book an appointment on the official portal selecting "EE.UU. – Seattle".

Regular consular days in Portland

Portland and its metropolitan area —including Hillsboro, Beaverton and Salem— have a sizeable Guatemalan community, working mostly in farming, food processing and construction. Given how many Guatemalans live in Oregon, the Seattle consulate regularly runs travelling consular days in Portland so people can complete procedures without going to Washington.
