Japanese consulates in Kansas

Kansas belongs to Chicago, and the honorary consul in Kansas City covers both Kansas and Missouri, which is unusual: most posts cover a single state.

Which Japanese consulate covers Kansas?

Kansas is covered by Consulate-General of Japan in Chicago, and that is the office that handles passports, visas, certificates and family register entries for anyone living here.

What you can settle without going

  • You can check whether you need a visa at all, because most U.S. passport holders do not for stays under 90 days.
  • You can fill in Visit Japan Web before you fly, which covers immigration and customs.
  • You can apply for the eVISA online if your nationality is not visa-exempt.

    • If you only need a certificate or a registration, check whether it can travel by mail before you plan the drive.
