Elizabeth has a nearby group of supported appointment centres in New York, covering the Netherlands, Portugal, France, Germany and Spain. VFS Global handles the Netherlands and Portugal routes, TLScontact handles France, and BLS International handles Germany and Spain. This guide pairs each route with its listed centre address and estimated driving time from Elizabeth. Availability changes, so confirm the destination-specific provider instructions and appointment details. The Cancellation Finder can send email and SMS notifications about relevant cancellations.
The nearest supported centre by the supplied distance ranking is VFS Global New York at 128 East 32nd Street, 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10016. It supports both the Netherlands and Portugal routes. The other listed centres are BLS Germany and BLS Spain at 55 West 39th Street, 18th Floor, New York, NY 10018, for Germany, and 55 West 39th Street, Suite 800, New York, NY 10018, for Spain, plus TLScontact at 142 West 57th Street, Suite 705, New York, NY 10019, for the France route only.
Route selection matters because several New York records share a city but not a destination. VFS Global's listing covers the Netherlands and Portugal, while the BLS Germany and BLS Spain centres are each linked only to their named route and require a consular-jurisdiction check. TLScontact's France centre currently returns documents by courier, so read its latest appointment instructions before relying on that arrangement. Check the provider page again before travelling, particularly for the selected appointment date.
The listed driving estimates from Elizabeth are 33 minutes to the VFS Global centre and 34 minutes to each of the BLS and TLScontact centres. These figures are calculated from the centre of Elizabeth, not from every starting address. Live traffic, road closures and your actual starting point can change the journey, so use the times as estimates rather than fixed arrival promises when deciding how to organise your appointment-day journey from Elizabeth to New York.
New York has four listed centre records across three addresses. The VFS Global site is on East 32nd Street; BLS Germany and BLS Spain share 55 West 39th Street but use different floors or suites; TLScontact is on West 57th Street. Match the destination, building, floor or suite, and postcode with the booking details before leaving Elizabeth for the selected appointment, especially if a cancellation changes the date or you rebook it later on that route.
VFS Global's New York centre covers both the Netherlands and Portugal, but the provider says submission arrangements can vary by destination. Check the destination-specific VFS page before booking, rather than assuming the two routes use identical instructions.
Germany and Spain use separate BLS records at 55 West 39th Street. Germany is on the 18th Floor and Spain is in Suite 800. Each location is linked only to its named route, so confirm the relevant consular jurisdiction before selecting an appointment.
The supplied estimates are 33 minutes to VFS Global and 34 minutes to BLS Germany, BLS Spain or TLScontact. They start at Elizabeth's centre and may change with traffic, closures or your starting point, so leave room for a different arrival time.
TLScontact currently returns documents by courier from its New York centre. Read the latest appointment instructions, and keep that arrangement in mind when planning after the appointment. Any update from the Cancellation Finder should be checked against the provider's current page.
