Does the Dallas consulate serve people who live in Fort Worth?
Yes. The jurisdiction of the Mexican Consulate General in Dallas includes Fort Worth and the rest of the Metroplex. To bring services closer, the consulate holds "Consulate on Wheels" events in Fort Worth; if they don't match your needs, you can go to the Dallas office with an appointment.
What are the hours to get a passport in Dallas?
The consulate is open Monday to Friday from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm, always by appointment. We recommend arriving a few minutes before your assigned time and with all your documentation ready to complete the process in the same visit.
Which Texas counties are served by the Dallas consulate?
The Dallas consulate covers North Texas, including the counties of Dallas, Tarrant, Denton, Collin and many others in the north of the state. For southeast Texas the competent consulate is Houston, and for the western border, El Paso.
Can I register my child born in Texas as Mexican?
Yes. The Dallas consulate registers the U.S.-born children of Mexicans in the Mexican civil registry. You'll need the U.S. birth certificate, the parents' ID and documentation proving the Mexican nationality of at least one of them. It's the first step for your child to have dual nationality and a Mexican passport.
How do I contact the consulate in an emergency?
In case of an immigration detention, a serious accident or a risky situation, call the consulate at (214) 932-8670 or the Center for Information and Assistance to Mexicans (CIAM), available 24 hours. If ICE detains you, state that you are Mexican and request consular assistance: it's a right protected by the Vienna Convention.
