The trip from Mobile and how the office receives you
With 18 h 9 min of driving, a visit from Mobile means a night near Washington, D.C. before your slot.
Papers are filed at the Embassy with an e-Consul booking, and a finished passport is collected without one, at the set times on its page.
Mobile is on Central time and the Embassy works on Eastern time: count the difference when you book.
A finished passport can be collected at VFS Global in Atlanta, 301 miles from Mobile, if you order and pay for the courier (VFS conditions, in Ukrainian).
Local records in Mobile for Ukrainian paperwork
For a child born in Mobile, the birth certificate comes from the Alabama Center for Health Statistics, in Montgomery (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records). The Ukrainian office takes it apostilled, together with an apostilled notarized translation; see the Alabama page.
