Consulado de México en Nueva Orleans

Very nice and quite cabin. Perfect place for a vacation. Host is helpful and friendly. Totally would recommend

Monica at the New Orleans Consulate of Mexico was very responsive to my emails requesting an appointment for Temporary Residency Visa application. She offered to answer my questions via email before the appointment.
The New Orleans requirements are detailed and clear to follow so you know what to bring. This reassured me that I was prepared with the documents to meet their requirements and have one efficient appointment.
When you arrive, Front door security confirms you have an appointment.
Yesterday 12/29, the Consulate waiting area was quite full & they were very short staffed due to Southwest’s flight cancellations. Even so, the staff moved scores of patient people through very efficiently all day. Although she didn’t need to, Monica apologized for the long wait.
I secured my visa pre-approval yesterday and Monica shared details on the next steps in Mexico to finalize my Visa. The exceptional staff made this a wonderful experience.
My advice if you’re applying for a residency visa — Read and follow their instructions, take time to learn what Mexico requires of foreign applicants in different situations (retired, working, or self-employed), bring patience & respect, allow plenty of time just in case, and you likely will have a positive experience. Foreigners cannot just “decide to move to Mexico.” 😂

The New Orleans Consulate office is across the street from great Hyatt Place where I stayed. The Consulate is ground floor street level with a big sign so easy in & out, parking available in Consulate building, friendly professional team, and great coffee next door. 🌺

We were able to get my husband his passport in just 2hrs. Great service.

Beyond excellent customer service. I'm truly grateful and impressed.
Thank you!

This place was very nice. Through speaking with an employee, I could tell that the people there are supportive in helping the community with their specific needs. I understand the hardship some families go through when trying to do simple things in a country where they don't speak the native language. Bless all the individuals at the place for helping others!

Staff is very professional and courteous. Arrived early to the scheduled appointment but the staff is very efficient and attended us even before the appointment time. We literally left the establishment even before the time of our scheduled appointment.

This consulate rocks! From the security to the staff It was a very smooth process! If you are looking to do visas at any Mexican consulate than this is the one! Wish I would have went straight here! My flight got canceled for my original appointment at another consulate last month, and they treated me here very friendly. Thank y'all so much and much respect to Mexico 🍺

In the past we have a bad experience with the Atlanta Georgia consul. New Orleans Mexican consul was an great experience with them today.
Security staff very professional, the staff they're treating people the right way! I'll given 5 stars!!

Great!!! Quick and efficient service. Secured our permanent visas (yay) in about an hour. Monica was a pleasure and is such a great ambassador for Mexico. Everyone in the room seemed to be getting things taken care of pretty quickly....constant movement. Overall, a good consulate.

Is hard to get an appointment, but once you have it people here are very nice and helpful. Is my fist time getting a document in USA not sure about other places but New Orleans is definitely better than the ones I have been in Mexico.

My wife and I applied for temporary residency visas. We were somewhat concerned about the process, but everything went smoothly. Monica was very helpful and answered all our questions. There was even convenient parking above the consulate.

The staff we interacted with were so very kind, patient and helpful. We had to make a couple trips there to provide them with all the required documents but all in all the process went more smoothly than we expected.

Been here twice, great costumer service and very positive and professional place :)
