Santa Clara applicants using this guide will find the supported appointment centres listed here in Washington DC, rather than in Santa Clara. The nearest listed centre is the German Embassy, Washington, at 4645 Reservoir Road NW, and the supported destinations are Germany, Italy, France and Spain. This page brings together the listed routes, centre guidance and estimated driving information. Availability changes, so applicants must confirm current provider instructions, verify residence and visa category where required, and treat the Cancellation Finder as a planning aid rather than a booking guarantee.
The German Embassy, Washington is the closest supported centre in the supplied list by the displayed distance estimate. Its address is 4645 Reservoir Road NW, Washington, DC 20007, and it is linked to the Germany route. The German missions guidance says applicants should confirm that the mission covers their place of residence and visa category before booking. That check matters for a Santa Clara applicant considering a Washington DC appointment before committing to the journey.
The other listed options are the Embassy of Italy Visa Office at 3000 Whitehaven Street NW, the TLScontact Washington Visa Application Centre at 1899 L Street NW, Suite 500, and the BLS Spain Visa Application Centre at 1660 L Street NW, Second Floor, Suite 216. They correspond to Italy, France and Spain respectively. Italy requires appointments, while the Spain centre is linked only to the Spain route and asks applicants to confirm consular jurisdiction.
The centre cards show driving distance and time estimates calculated from the centre of Santa Clara. They are not a fixed journey promise: live traffic, road closures and your actual starting point can change the result. Because the listed centres are all in Washington DC, compare the appointment date with the practical time needed for travel, arrival and any return arrangements before acting on a cancellation through the official booking instructions for the relevant centre.
Addresses are supplied to help you distinguish the Washington DC destinations: the two embassy offices are on Reservoir Road NW and Whitehaven Street NW, while the France and Spain centres are on L Street NW. The Italy guidance records no on-site parking at the embassy. Use the current centre instructions for access and security details, and do not assume that one office's arrangements apply to another when planning ahead for your Washington DC appointment date.
Check the German mission's residence and visa-category guidance before selecting Germany. A suitable-looking Washington DC date is not enough if that mission does not cover your circumstances, so complete this jurisdiction check before arranging the long journey from Santa Clara.
For an Italian appointment, remember that the embassy requires appointments and has no on-site parking. Recheck the current Italian instructions, then plan how you will reach 3000 Whitehaven Street NW without treating parking arrangements at another centre as applicable.
If your route is Spain, confirm consular jurisdiction and remember that the BLS location is linked only to Spain. Keep the route, centre name and address together when reviewing the official booking details, especially because several supported offices share Washington DC as their application city.
Keep the appointment confirmation available and review current security instructions before travelling to TLScontact. Its listed address is 1899 L Street NW, Suite 500, Washington, DC 20036, but the provider's latest instructions should take precedence over this guide.
