Applicants in Victoria, British Columbia can use this page to compare supported visa appointment routes and the nearest listed centres. The nearest supported options shown here are in Vancouver: the VFS Global Vancouver Visa Application Centre and the Consulate General of Italy, Vancouver.

Availability changes, so confirm the destination's current provider instructions and, where relevant, jurisdiction, appointment category and confirmation before making travel plans. The Cancellation Finder can send email and SMS notifications while you follow a supported route.
For Victoria, Vancouver is the nearest supported city in the supplied list. The VFS Global Vancouver Visa Application Centre is at Unit 440, 580 Hornby Street, Vancouver, BC V6C 2E7, and its listed routes cover France, Germany, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. The Consulate General of Italy, Vancouver is at Suite 840, 1140 West Pender Street, Vancouver, BC V6E 4G1, with the Italy route. Both Vancouver estimates are 246 minutes from the centre of Victoria. VFS guidance says check the destination page and confirmation; Italy's guidance covers jurisdiction and Prenot@Mi.
The Vancouver VFS entries are for France, Germany, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain, each shown with VFS Global as provider, a base price of CAD 39.99 and a 30-day duration. Italy is listed through an Embassy or Consulate route, with Prenot@Mi as its official booking destination and the same base price and duration. The route entries identify official booking pages for each destination. Use the relevant page rather than assuming one booking process applies to every destination.
The supplied journey estimate from the centre of Victoria to each Vancouver centre is 246 minutes. It is calculated using OpenStreetMap and OSRM data, so it is not a promise of the time you will need. The distance note says live traffic, road closures and your starting point can change the journey. Check the centre address, destination-specific VFS guidance and appointment confirmation before travelling, then allow time for the appointment and possible disruption on the day.
Toronto appears as a supported alternative for Spain and Germany, rather than the nearest listed city. The Consulate General of Spain is at 2 Bloor Street East, Suite 1201, Toronto, ON M4W 1A8; the German Consulate General is at 2 Bloor Street East, 25th Floor, Toronto, ON M4W 1A8. The supplied estimate from the centre of Victoria is 3,099 minutes to each Toronto centre. Confirm jurisdiction and the appointment process or category before committing to this longer journey.
Keep your appointment confirmation and any documents listed by the destination provider together, then re-read the relevant provider page before leaving Victoria. The Vancouver VFS guidance advises checking the destination page and confirmation. For Italy, review the consular guidance and Prenot@Mi details.
Note the address and postcode before setting out. Vancouver options use Unit 440, 580 Hornby Street, V6C 2E7, or Suite 840, 1140 West Pender Street, V6E 4G1. Toronto entries share 2 Bloor Street East but use Suite 1201 or 25th Floor, so check your booking.
Treat the journey figures as estimates, not fixed arrival times. They are calculated from the centre of Victoria, and traffic, road closures or your actual starting point may alter the journey. Build sensible contingency around the 246-minute Vancouver estimate or 3,099-minute Toronto estimate.
Before accepting a slot, check that the destination and application city suit your case. Italy's guidance refers to its stated consular jurisdiction, while Spain and Germany advise checking jurisdiction; Germany also refers to appointment category. Confirm current instructions with the relevant provider before travel.
