For the Antiguan community in Miami, this is the practical link to the administration back home — documents, identity, civil status, and help when something goes badly wrong far from home.
Below you will find the contact details on record, what the office typically handles, how appointments work and the questions people ask most before travelling to Miami.
📞 Quick Contact
- Address: 25 SE 2nd AVE, Miami
- Phone: (305) 381-6762
- Type of office: Consulate General
🛂 Services normally available
Antiguan consular offices generally handle the following, though not every post offers every service:
- Visas: applications from people travelling to Antigua and Barbuda, where the category is not handled through an online system.
- Documents: legalisation and certification. Ask the office that will receive the paper which certification it accepts before paying for any of it.
- Passports: handled here in most cases, though a lost or stolen book follows a separate route that usually begins with a police report.
- Powers of attorney: drawn up or witnessed here for use at home. The wording should come from the lawyer or notary who will use it.
📅 Before you book
Appointments are the norm rather than the exception. Plan around the availability at the Miami office rather than around your own calendar.
Without a published system, contact the office directly and ask how it handles appointments and whether it sees anyone without one.
Ask about payment when you book. Cash or a money order for the exact amount is common across consular networks, and cards are the exception rather than the rule.
🤝 Practical points
Jurisdiction decides everything and distance decides nothing. A file submitted to the wrong post is returned, however close that post happens to be.
Check that names and dates match across every document you bring. Mismatches stop files more often than missing papers do.
Public holidays close the office twice over: the American ones and those of Antigua and Barbuda. Check both calendars before travelling.
Common questions before you go
Do I need a visa to visit Antigua and Barbuda?
That depends on your nationality and the length of the trip. Where Antigua and Barbuda does require one, it is increasingly applied for online rather than at a counter.
Does this office handle passports?
It usually does, by appointment and with personal attendance for biometrics. Ask whether the booklet is collected at the counter or posted out.
Does this consulate general cover my state?
Consular districts are drawn by each country, and the nearest office is not always the competent one. Confirm the district before booking anything in Miami.
What if I lose my passport days before a flight?
That does not go through the ordinary appointment queue. Call and say it is an emergency: for imminent travel most networks issue a travel document valid for a single journey.
How do I confirm the requirements before travelling there?
By telephone on (305) 381-6762. Ask about the documents and the exact fee: both change without much notice, and many posts take only cash or a money order.
