The Honorary Consulate of Jamaica

Jamaicans wishing to renew their passports can obtain application forms by clicking on the Passport Forms Link above, print, complete and send to the nearest consulate in your area or the Embassy in Washington, DC.

Application forms can also be obtained by contacting the Embassy of Jamaica in Washington D.C., the Consulate General of Jamaica in New York or other Jamaican Consulates near to them. The form is free.

We have added a page of information about passports here.

NOTE: While we provide application forms, we do not process passports at the Consulate in Chicago. This has to be done at either the Embassy of Jamaica in Washington, D.C., or at one of the Consulate General (New York or Miami).

The fees for a Jamaican visa vary depending on the type, i.e., work/business, student, visitor and the particular citizenship held by the applicant.

NOTE: Visas are issued only in valid passports.

We have added a page of information about visas here.

Two recently taken passport size photographs are required with every visa application. Individuals applying for visas should do so at the closest Jamaican Consulate near them.
