Bangladesh consulate in Minneapolis

Checked against the official pages on 22 October 2026. How we check.

There is no Bangladeshi government office in Minneapolis for passports or the NVR. The Embassy’s consular wing in Washington sits 1,101 miles from Minneapolis by road, about 20 h 36 min if the traffic is light.

Which Bangladesh consulate serves Minneapolis?

The Embassy’s page leaves Minnesota out of the three consular districts, which makes Washington the office for it (Embassy list of districts).

From Minneapolis: the trip or the mail

With 20 h 36 min of driving, you cannot reach the Embassy before its morning counter closes unless you leave in the night, so count on a night near Washington, D.C.

A same-day NVR at the Embassy has a short drop-off window early in the morning, which from Minneapolis means arriving the day before.

At the Embassy, the e-passport enrollment slot comes from the national portal, while the NVR is handled the same day without an appointment.

Minneapolis is on Central time, and the Embassy works on Eastern time.

Where the U.S. birth and marriage papers from Minneapolis come from

The birth certificate behind the NVR of a child born in Minneapolis is issued by the Minnesota Department of Health, in St. Paul, and the Minnesota page covers its fee and the apostille (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records, Embassy NVR page).

If the marriage license was issued in Hennepin County, where Minneapolis lies, the CDC’s directory for Minnesota points to the local registrar of Hennepin County for the certified copy (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
