Recent consular closures around the world are bothering Canadians and visitors to Canada. A lot of travelers are questioning if they still can find consulates here and there.

Why may you need a Canadian Consulate if you are traveling? First of all, if your passport/ID was lost or stolen, you will have to report the case and figure out the way of coming home. Another reason might be the situation when you need an urgent legalization of certain documents. Under the most unpleasant circumstances, you certainly need a Consulate if you got arrested or got very sick without travel insurance.

So, if you are Canadian and traveling abroad, please visit this government source to find the Canadian Consulate in the destination country.
