Pasadena applicants using the supported visa routes shown here will find the listed centres in Washington DC, rather than a local office in this guide. Germany, France, Spain and Italy each have a named route and centre. The figures for distance and driving time are estimates calculated from Pasadena's centre, so they should support planning rather than replace a personal journey check. Appointment availability changes, and current instructions should be confirmed with the relevant provider before you book or travel.
On the supplied list, the German Embassy, Washington, is the closest centre to Pasadena by the recorded driving-distance estimate. The address is 4645 Reservoir Road NW, Washington, DC 20007, and its listed driving-time figure is 2,804 minutes from Pasadena's centre. This listing belongs to the Germany route. The German Missions guidance says applicants should confirm that the mission covers their place of residence and visa category before making a booking through the official appointment page.
Three further supported centres are listed in Washington DC. TLScontact Washington Visa Application Centre, at 1899 L Street NW, Suite 500, serves the France route. BLS Spain Visa Application Centre, Washington, at 1660 L Street NW, Second Floor, Suite 216, serves Spain only. The Embassy of Italy Visa Office is at 3000 Whitehaven Street NW. Check the Spain jurisdiction guidance, France security instructions and the Italy appointment requirement before making plans for your selected route.
From Pasadena's centre, the supplied driving-time estimates to the four Washington DC listings range from 2,802 to 2,805 minutes. The German Embassy is recorded at 2,804 minutes, while the BLS Spain and TLScontact listings are each recorded at 2,802 or 2,803 minutes in the supplied listings. Treat these numbers as estimates only. Traffic, road closures and your actual starting point can change the journey, even when the destination office is unchanged on the day you travel.
Washington DC is a substantial journey from Pasadena, so build the appointment around the correct office rather than assuming the addresses are interchangeable. TLScontact and BLS Spain are both on L Street NW but have different suite details. The German Embassy is on Reservoir Road NW and the Italian Visa Office is on Whitehaven Street NW. Keep the selected provider's address, confirmation and relevant guidance together, and plan travel for the chosen appointment date in advance.
Use the official Germany guidance before booking. The Washington mission asks applicants to confirm that it covers their place of residence and visa category, so treat that check as part of preparation rather than assuming Pasadena determines the correct mission.
Keep the two L Street addresses separate in your notes: TLScontact uses Suite 500, while BLS Spain uses Second Floor, Suite 216. Match the suite to the route shown in your confirmation before setting out, as the street name alone is not enough.
The Pasadena journey figures are calculated from the location centre and can change with traffic, road closures or a different starting point. Use the listed driving time to shape a realistic plan, then leave flexibility for arrival and the appointment-day process.
If you choose the Italy route, note that appointments are required at the Embassy of Italy Visa Office and the guidance states there is no on-site parking. Confirm the office address, then make arrangements that do not depend on parking at the embassy.
