Applicants in Bakersfield are shown supported visa appointment options in Washington DC, with Germany, France, Spain and Italy routes listed for this page. The nearest listed centre is the German Embassy at 4645 Reservoir Road NW, an estimated 2,686.8 driving miles away. This guide sets out the listed centres, route choices, journey caveats and practical appointment-day checks, while the Cancellation Finder can send email and SMS notifications as availability changes.
The nearest supported listing is the German Embassy, Washington, at 4645 Reservoir Road NW, Washington, DC 20007, with an estimated driving distance of 2,686.8 miles and time of 2,835 minutes from Bakersfield's centre. Other supplied options are TLScontact at 1899 L Street NW, Suite 500, BLS Spain at 1660 L Street NW, Second Floor, Suite 216, and Italy's visa office at 3000 Whitehaven Street NW. Distances are estimates, not fixed journey times.
The four supplied route entries are Germany, France, Spain and Italy, all with Washington DC as the application city. Germany is linked to the German Embassy, France to TLScontact, Spain to BLS International and Italy to the Embassy of Italy Visa Office. The Germany guidance asks applicants to confirm residence and visa category coverage, while the Spain listing asks for a consular jurisdiction check before booking.
Every supplied option is in Washington DC, so this is a substantial long-distance journey rather than a local visit. The estimates range from 2,686.8 to 2,688.6 driving miles and 2,834 to 2,837 minutes, depending on the centre. Live traffic, road closures and your actual starting point can change the journey. Recheck the official centre page and appointment confirmation before setting off, especially for security instructions.
Use the exact address for the route you select, because the Washington centres are separate locations: TLScontact and BLS Spain are both on L Street NW, while the German Embassy is on Reservoir Road NW and the Italian visa office is on Whitehaven Street NW. The supplied figures come from Bakersfield's centre, so your own starting point may produce a different driving estimate for your journey.
For Germany, confirm that the Washington mission covers your place of residence and visa category before booking. For Spain, confirm your consular jurisdiction before booking. These checks matter before arranging a journey of the scale shown in the estimate.
The TLScontact listing advises checking your appointment confirmation and current security instructions before travelling. Keep the relevant confirmation details accessible, then compare them with the official page before leaving Bakersfield for Washington DC.
If your selected route is Italy, note that appointments are required and the embassy does not provide on-site parking. Build that information into your plan, and verify the current embassy instructions because arrangements can change.
Match your destination with the correct Washington centre before booking. Germany, France, Spain and Italy use different listed providers or missions, so check the address, route name and official instructions together before arranging the journey.
