Consulate General of the Argentine Republic in Houston

Argentina's Consulate General in Houston serves six states: Texas, New Mexico, Arkansas, Colorado, Oklahoma and Louisiana. Its address is 2200 West Loop South, Suite 1025, Houston, TX 77027. The office lists in-person service Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.; telephone enquiries have a different time window, so office hours should not be confused with call availability.

The office handles passports and DNI cards, visas, powers of attorney, travel permissions for minors, nationality by option, certificates, civil registrations and legalisations. The portal separates requirements and email contacts by procedure. A visa application, for example, begins by emailing the relevant section and a consular interview requires an appointment; identity documents use the national booking system.

The passport and DNI page, updated in September 2026, says dates may be booked within 60 days of accessing the system. It also warns that new documents do not reach the office sooner than 60 days after the application is taken. Standard collection is in person, with a conditional postal option requiring a prepaid envelope and signed authorisation at the time of application; check the page before choosing it.

Public accounts vary: some reviews highlight courtesy, efficiency and help with document procedures, while others describe different individual experiences. They should not be read as a guaranteed outcome. Useful planning information comes from official channels, application tracking and the requirements published for each document type.

The office serves a large region, so a confirmed appointment and complete file can prevent an unnecessary trip. This profile gathers the location, phone, general email and in-person hours; for visas, notarial matters, nationality or document delivery, use the subject-specific email listed by the consulate.
