Shreveport applicants are shown four supported Washington DC options for Germany, France, Spain and Italy. The closest listed centre is German Embassy, Washington, with TLScontact, BLS International and the Embassy of Italy also included for the corresponding destinations. The journey figures are estimates calculated from Shreveport's centre, and the supplied caveat warns that live traffic, road closures and your actual starting point can change them. Check mission coverage, jurisdiction and current provider instructions before committing to a booking.
Shreveport's supplied route set uses four Washington DC addresses. Germany goes to German Embassy, Washington, 4645 Reservoir Road NW, Washington, DC 20007. France goes to TLScontact Washington Visa Application Centre, 1899 L Street NW, Suite 500, Washington, DC 20036. Spain goes to BLS Spain Visa Application Centre, Washington, 1660 L Street NW, Second Floor, Suite 216, Washington, DC 20036. Italy goes to the Embassy of Italy Visa Office, 3000 Whitehaven Street NW, Washington, DC 20008.
The centre list is limited to the supplied supported options and should not be read as a complete list of provider locations. Germany's guidance says to confirm residence and visa-category coverage. Spain is linked only to the Spain route and asks for a consular jurisdiction check. France advises checking the appointment confirmation and current security instructions before travel. Italy requires an appointment, and its embassy does not provide on-site parking, so review that point before travelling to Washington DC.
From Shreveport, the Washington DC centres are not a local option, so the appointment should be planned alongside the journey. The displayed driving figures are estimates from Shreveport's centre rather than fixed arrival promises. Live traffic, road closures and your actual starting point may alter them. Check the confirmed address against your travel arrangements, allow extra flexibility, and avoid treating the estimate as a guarantee of how the appointment day will unfold in Washington DC.
At the Washington DC end, TLScontact and BLS International have separate offices on L Street NW, with France assigned to Suite 500 and Spain assigned to Second Floor, Suite 216. The German Embassy is on Reservoir Road NW, and the Italian Visa Office is on Whitehaven Street NW. Use the full details on your confirmation when arranging a long trip from Shreveport to the relevant Washington DC location for your selected destination and appointment day.
For Germany, confirm that the Washington mission covers your place of residence and visa category before booking. For Spain, check consular jurisdiction too. Completing these checks first can prevent an unsuitable Washington DC appointment after a long journey from Shreveport.
Keep the appointment confirmation available and read the current security instructions supplied for TLScontact before setting out. The France centre guidance specifically points to both. Keep the destination and exact Washington DC office details visible during travel from Shreveport.
Use the Shreveport estimate as a planning reference, not a promised arrival time. It is calculated from the named location's centre, while traffic, road closures and your actual starting point can change the result. Build spare time into the trip.
Use the official booking link for the selected destination and compare its provider name and address with the confirmation. Germany, France, Spain and Italy point to separate Washington DC missions or centres, so keep the Shreveport journey tied to the right appointment.
