Checked against the official pages on 22 October 2026. How we check.

Which Ukrainian consulate serves Louisville?

The Embassy’s consular section in Washington serves Kentucky, which is on the district list the office publishes (district list, in Ukrainian).

Distance does not decide the office: the Ukrainian Consulate General in Chicago is 270 miles from Louisville in a straight line and the Embassy’s consular section in Washington is 472 miles, and the lists give Kentucky to the Embassy’s consular section in Washington.

Getting from Louisville to your Ukrainian office

From Louisville, the 10 h 53 min drive and a timed slot add up to two days: one to arrive near Washington, D.C., one at the office.

Visits to the Embassy are booked in e-Consul; collecting a finished passport needs no booking.

Instead of a second trip to the Embassy’s consular section in Washington, you can order delivery of the finished passport to the VFS Global center in Columbus, 189 miles from Louisville (VFS conditions, in Ukrainian).

Birth and marriage records for Louisville and the Ukrainian office

For a child born in Louisville, the birth certificate comes from the Office of Vital Statistics of the Department for Public Health, in Frankfort (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).

The Ukrainian office takes it apostilled, together with an apostilled notarized translation; see the Kentucky page.

In Jefferson County, where Louisville is, marriage records are kept by the Jefferson County Court Clerk (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records), and for a new surname in a Ukrainian passport that certificate goes apostilled and translated.
