New York is the application city for every listed Hartford option. The closest is the Consulate General of Italy at 690 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10065, estimated at 109.1 miles and 152 minutes by car from the centre of Hartford. The listed guidance directs visa applicants to the East 69th Street entrance and says they attend by appointment. This Italy route is the only one in the list using that consulate address. It is therefore sensible to match the route before planning the journey.
Three other New York centres sit slightly farther out in the estimates. TLScontact New York Visa Application Centre, at 142 West 57th Street, Suite 705, is 112.2 miles and 154 minutes away for France. BLS Germany is at 55 West 39th Street, 18th Floor, and BLS Spain is at the same street address in Suite 800; each is listed at 113.1 miles and 157 minutes. The Germany and Spain guidance calls for a consular-jurisdiction check before selecting either New York centre.
From Hartford, the listed driving estimates range from 109.1 miles and 152 minutes for Italy to 113.1 miles and 157 minutes for Germany and Spain. France sits between them at 112.2 miles and 154 minutes. These calculations begin at the centre of Hartford, so they are useful benchmarks rather than a personal door-to-door itinerary. Live traffic, road closures and your actual starting point can change the journey, making it wise to check conditions again before departure if the appointment is fixed.
Centre instructions should shape the final part of the plan. Italy's guidance identifies the East 69th Street entrance and says applicants attend by appointment. The TLScontact note says documents are currently returned by courier from the New York centre, while asking applicants to check the latest appointment instructions. Germany and Spain are linked only to their named routes, so confirm jurisdiction before travelling. Use the exact address and suite shown on the current official page, and recheck that page before leaving.
For the Italy appointment, the listed Consulate General guidance directs applicants to the East 69th Street entrance and says attendance is by appointment. Keep that detail with the booking information, and verify the 690 Park Avenue address before setting out from Hartford.
The TLScontact New York listing says documents are currently returned by courier from this centre and asks applicants to check the latest appointment instructions. Review that note and your confirmation before travelling, especially if you expected to collect documents in person. Do not rely on an older arrangement.
BLS Germany at 55 West 39th Street, 18th Floor, is linked only to Germany, and BLS Spain at Suite 800 is linked only to Spain. The guidance for both locations says to confirm consular jurisdiction before booking. Check the correct official route page rather than choosing solely because the addresses are close.
The shortest listed Hartford journey is still 109.1 miles and 152 minutes by car. Treat that as an estimate from Hartford's centre, not a guaranteed arrival time. Check live traffic and road closures on the day, and leave a margin for finding the correct building and suite, since the figures do not cover those extra steps.
