U.S. CITIZEN WARDEN MESSAGE
PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT - VISA PAGE SERVICE CHANGES
The following Warden Message was disseminated to U.S. citizens on January 8,
2007
As of January 1, 2007 the Consular Agencies in the consular district of the U.S.
Embassy in Madrid, Spain (Fuengirola, La Coruņa, Las Palmas, Sevilla and
Valencia) are no longer able to add additional visa pages to U.S. passports. The
Consular Agency in Palma de Mallorca has been unable to add additional visa
pages to U.S. passports since December 12, 2006. Both the American Citizen
Services Unit at the Embassy in Madrid and the Consulate General in Barcelona
can still add additional visa pages.
The application for additional visa pages, the DS-4085, is available online for
download at:
http://travel.state.gov/passport/forms/ds4085/ds4085_2662.html. The
application and passport may be submitted in person, by certified mail or by
courier by U.S. citizens presently in Spain. If submitting by mail or courier,
please be sure to include a self-addressed stamped envelope for certified mail
or pre-paid courier envelope. Any applications and passports received without
return postage or pre-paid courier envelope will be returned by the MRW courier
company with payment due on delivery.
While it is still possible to obtain and submit the DS-4085 through our consular
agents, all applicants who do so need to remember that it will take longer than
submitting the form and passport directly to the Embassy in Madrid or the
Consulate General in Barcelona. |
