Portuguese Consulate in Warwick

Warwick has no Portuguese consulate of its own. The city belongs to the Portuguese Consulate in Providence: 11 miles of road, around 18 min.

Which Portuguese consulate serves Warwick

The Portuguese Consulate in Providence lists Rhode Island in its jurisdiction (source), which puts Warwick in its hands.

The Providence consulate says it does not process visa applications and sends applicants to the posts “nearest, in Boston, New Bedford, Newark or New York”; New Bedford’s jurisdiction page says Rhode Island residents must apply for a visa through New Bedford. Neither page is dated. (sources: 1, 2)

A routing engine puts the drive at 11 miles and 18 min, at posted speed limits and without traffic; in a straight line it is 9 miles.

Read the office’s hours as they are: Warwick is on the same time.

To avoid the trip to the office there are outreach visits: the closest to Warwick is in Fall River (the next one is on November 20), 19 miles away in a straight line (source).

The U.S. papers from Warwick the consulate asks for

Registering a child born here and transcribing a marriage both take U.S. papers. The birth certificate comes from the Center for Vital Records of the RI Department of Health (CDC).

To be used in Portugal, the certificate needs an apostille: in Rhode Island it is issued by the Rhode Island Secretary of State (Hague Conference list).
