Germany and Spain share the nearest supplied distance from Markham. The German Consulate General, Toronto is at 2 Bloor Street East, 25th Floor, Toronto, ON M4W 1A8, while the Consulate General of Spain is at 2 Bloor Street East, Suite 1201, Toronto, ON M4W 1A8. Each is estimated at 16.9 driving miles and 28 minutes from Markham's centre. German guidance calls for a jurisdiction and appointment-category check; Spanish guidance asks applicants to confirm jurisdiction and process before booking the selected route.
For France, the Netherlands and Portugal, the listed location is VFS Global Toronto, Unit 801, 415 Yonge Street, Toronto, ON M5B 2E7. Its estimate from Markham is 17.5 miles and 30 minutes. Italy is listed at the Consulate General of Italy, 136 Beverley Street, Toronto, ON M5T 1Y5, at 18.4 miles and 33 minutes. The route set therefore spans three Toronto addresses, so match your destination with the exact provider page and confirmation before setting out or booking the appointment.
Although Markham is the closest named location in this set, the estimates still point to different Toronto buildings. Germany and Spain use the two suites at 2 Bloor Street East; VFS Global is at Unit 801, 415 Yonge Street; and Italy is at 136 Beverley Street. The driving figures from Markham's centre are 16.9 miles and 28 minutes for Germany or Spain, 17.5 miles and 30 minutes for VFS, and 18.4 miles and 33 minutes for Italy. Check the exact route before leaving.
These are driving estimates calculated from the centre of Markham, and the supplied caveat warns that live traffic, road closures and your starting point can change the journey. No public transport route is given in the location data, so choose and verify your own transport arrangements. A short estimated journey is not a guarantee of appointment access or arrival. If an Alert identifies a cancellation, check the official booking page, centre address and current provider instructions before committing to the slot.
Germany and Spain are both on Bloor Street East but use different suites. France, the Netherlands and Portugal use VFS Global at Unit 801, 415 Yonge Street, while Italy is at 136 Beverley Street. Put the exact provider and address from your confirmation into your plan, even though the centres are close to Markham.
For Germany, the supplied guidance says to check consular jurisdiction and appointment category. Spain asks applicants to confirm jurisdiction and appointment process, and Italy accepts applications only from residents in its stated jurisdiction. Do these checks before paying for travel or acting on a cancellation Alert, because the nearest building is not automatically the correct route.
VFS Global lists France, the Netherlands and Portugal through the Toronto application centre. Its guidance says to check the destination-specific VFS page and appointment confirmation before travelling. Keep the selected destination, official link and centre address together, and compare them again if an Alert leads you to a newly available appointment.
Markham's listed times run from 28 minutes for Germany and Spain to 33 minutes for Italy. They are estimates from the location centre, not guaranteed arrival times. Live traffic, road closures and your own starting point can alter the trip, so recheck the route and leave a sensible personal allowance on appointment day.
