Visiting from Lakeville, or sending the papers by mail
A trip from Lakeville to the Embassy takes 20 h 52 min by road, and the counter for papers works in the morning: plan a night near Washington, D.C.
For a same-day NVR, the Embassy takes passports only early in the morning, which from Lakeville means arriving the day before.
The Embassy books the e-passport visit inside the national portal, epassport.gov.bd, and says it cannot book those slots itself, while an NVR is walk-in.
Mind the clock: Lakeville keeps Central time and the Embassy Eastern time.
Birth and marriage papers from Lakeville for the NVR and the passport
A child born in Lakeville gets the NVR with a U.S. birth certificate issued by the Minnesota Department of Health, in St. Paul, whose fee is on the Minnesota page (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records, Embassy NVR page).
For a marriage license issued in Dakota County, the county that includes Lakeville, the CDC’s directory for Minnesota sends you to the local registrar of Dakota County (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
