Ann Arbor applicants using the supplied routes are directed to Washington DC, with the German Embassy listed as the nearest supported centre. Its address is 4645 Reservoir Road NW, Washington, DC 20007, and the Germany route includes a reminder to confirm residence and visa-category coverage. The other listed options cover Italy, France and Spain at separate addresses. Because the journey estimates are substantial, check the destination, official instructions and confirmed address before arranging travel from Ann Arbor.
Ann Arbor's nearest supplied centre is the German Embassy at 4645 Reservoir Road NW, Washington, DC 20007. Its guidance asks applicants to confirm that the mission covers their place of residence and visa category before booking. The listed Italy location is the Embassy of Italy Visa Office at 3000 Whitehaven Street NW, Washington, DC 20008, where appointments are required and no on-site parking is provided. Germany and Italy therefore have separate destinations, addresses and instructions.
France is handled through the TLScontact Washington Visa Application Centre at 1899 L Street NW, Suite 500, Washington, DC 20036. Applicants are told to check the appointment confirmation and current security instructions before travelling. Spain uses the BLS Spain Visa Application Centre at 1660 L Street NW, Second Floor, Suite 216, Washington, DC 20036, which is linked only to Spain and carries a consular-jurisdiction reminder. Select the destination before comparing centre details for your route.
The supplied driving estimates from Ann Arbor's centre are 587 minutes to the German Embassy, 592 to the Italian Embassy, and 593 to both TLScontact and BLS Spain. They are calculated estimates, not a fixed promise of journey time. Live traffic, road closures and your actual starting point can change them. Use the figures shown in the centre cards to frame the trip, then allow practical contingency around the appointment date and confirmed address itself.
Washington's four listed choices are destination-specific. Germany uses the German Embassy, Italy uses the Embassy of Italy Visa Office, France uses TLScontact and Spain uses BLS International. The Italy guidance notes no on-site parking, while Spain's guidance limits its centre to the Spain route and asks for jurisdiction confirmation. Check the provider named on your confirmation, then use that organisation's official instructions rather than planning from the city name alone when arranging the journey.
Make the destination choice before considering the Washington centre. The German Embassy, Embassy of Italy, TLScontact and BLS International are separate organisations at different addresses. The BLS location is linked only to Spain, while Italy requires appointments and has no on-site parking.
Carry the confirmation with the destination documents and compare its address with the centre card. TLScontact covers confirmation and security instructions, German guidance covers residence and visa category, and BLS asks for jurisdiction confirmation. Treat these details as route-specific.
Treat the 587-minute German estimate from Ann Arbor's centre as a planning reference, not an arrival promise. The other estimates are 592 minutes for Italy and 593 for TLScontact and BLS. Traffic, road closures and your starting point may change them, so allow flexibility.
Check the official page before travel, because destination guidance differs. Germany asks for residence and visa-category confirmation, TLScontact refers to appointment and security instructions, BLS asks for consular jurisdiction, and Italy states that appointments are required. Recheck it before setting out.
