Which Ukrainian consulate serves Memphis?
The Embassy’s consular section in Washington lists Tennessee in its consular district on its own pages (district list, in Ukrainian).
| Ukrainian office | Straight-line distance |
|---|---|
| Consulate General, Chicago | 484 miles |
| Consulate General, Houston | 489 miles |
| Embassy, Washington, D.C. (office for Memphis here) | 761 miles |
| Consulate General, New York | 956 miles |
| Consulate General, San Francisco | 1,798 miles |
Distance does not decide the office: the Ukrainian Consulate General in Chicago is 484 miles from Memphis in a straight line and the Embassy’s consular section in Washington is 761 miles, and the lists give Tennessee to the Embassy’s consular section in Washington.
The trip from Memphis and how the office receives you
The Embassy is 16 h 3 min from Memphis by road, too far for a same-day trip: book a night near Washington, D.C.
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.
Memphis is on Central time and the Embassy works on Eastern time: count the difference when you book.
Once the passport is made, you can have it sent by VFS Global, at your expense, to its center in Atlanta, 337 miles from Memphis in a straight line (VFS conditions, in Ukrainian).
Local records in Memphis for Ukrainian paperwork
For a child born in Memphis, the birth certificate comes from Tennessee Vital Records, in Nashville (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records). The Ukrainian office takes it apostilled, together with an apostilled notarized translation; see the Tennessee page.
