Israeli consulate in Chula Vista: the office is in Los Angeles

Israeli consulate in Chula Vista, California

No Israeli consulate operates in Chula Vista. The Israeli Consulate General in Los Angeles, 140 miles from Chula Vista by road (2 h 46 min), takes its cases.

Which Israeli consulate serves Chula Vista

California has two Israeli offices, and the California page quotes what each one’s page says about the split.

The center of Chula Vista lies in congressional district 52. San Francisco lists “Districts 1-22” (source), which we take to mean those districts, so Chula Vista stays with Los Angeles by our reading.

A routing engine puts the drive at 140 miles and 2 h 46 min at legal speeds with no traffic; the straight-line distance is 126 miles.

Los Angeles keeps the same clock as Chula Vista, so its office hours need no conversion.

Other cities in California near Chula Vista

In a straight line from Chula Vista: San Diego, 7 miles; El Cajon, 13 miles; Escondido, 34 miles. The California page has the drive to Los Angeles from its main cities.

U.S. birth and marriage papers from Chula Vista for an Israeli mission

The birth certificate that the notice of a child born in Chula Vista asks for, in the original, is issued by the California Department of Public Health’s Vital Records office, in Sacramento (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).

The California page gives its fee, and the mission’s page lists the document (the mission’s birth notice page).

In San Diego County, where Chula Vista is, certified copies of a marriage record come from the San Diego County Recorder (or its Clerk, for a confidential marriage), according to the CDC’s directory for California (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records). For the mission, the copy needs an apostille.

For a birth, marriage or court document issued in California, the apostille comes from the California Secretary of State (HCCH list), not from the consulate.
