An old directory address can turn a consular errand into a wasted trip. The current office is at 875 N. Michigan Avenue, Suite 1800, and jurisdiction follows residence—not whichever major city is closest.

Does Chicago serve your state?

The district covers Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kentucky, Ohio, Kansas, Iowa and Missouri. Select Chicago when requesting an appointment if you live in one of those states. Public hours are Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m.; the office says all services require an appointment.

What to bring and how to pay

For a passport, Chile’s foreign ministry asks applicants to prove Chilean nationality with an identity card or previous passport; bring a valid identity card (if expired, apply for both documents); and, after theft or loss, a police report where available. Applicants under 18 attend with both parents or the required notarized authorization/custody document. The national published price is US$91 for a 50-page passport plus a US$3 consular fee; confirm the current amount with the post. Chicago says it accepts credit or debit cards, but not American Express. Use the local listing and appointment page to book and verify the exact procedure.

Services beyond passports

  • Passports and Chilean identity cards.
  • Civil Registry registrations and certificates.
  • Notarial acts and powers, subject to the post’s appointment calendar.
  • Guidance on overseas voting and emergency travel documents.

If a passport is lost during travel, an emergency travel document requires advance contact, blocking the passport, a police report when possible and proof of onward travel. The national published fee is US$40. It is not valid for leaving Chile.

Contact: +1 312-654-8780; weekend emergency line +1 312-852-6600. The local page says to leave a voicemail for a return call. Email chicago@consulado.gob.cl. Book an appointment · Official passport requirements · Emergency passport.
