Israeli consulate in Detroit: the office is in Chicago

Checked against the official pages on 13 November 2026. How we check.

You will not find an Israeli consulate in Detroit. Residents of Detroit go to the Israeli Consulate General in Chicago, 283 miles away (5 h 18 min by road).

Which Israeli consulate serves Detroit

Michigan is on the list of the Israeli Consulate General in Chicago (source), so that is the office for Detroit.

By road, Detroit is 283 miles from the office, about 5 h 18 min at posted speed limits and without traffic; in a straight line, 238 miles.

Chicago gives no phone support: questions go by email with your full name and ID number, and since 13 November 2026 every visitor has to be registered in advance (source).

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