Canada is host to 497 foreign diplomatic missions sent by 143 countries. As in most countries, the diplomatic community is centred on the capital, Ottawa, where 127 of these missions are based. Missions are also present in Toronto and Montreal.
Not every mission offers the same services. The list below includes 204 consulate generals, 126 honorary consulates, 114 embassys, 30 consulates, 22 high commissions and 1 permanent mission. An embassy is the main mission and normally sits in the capital; a consulate general or consulate handles visas and passport work for its own region; an honorary consulate offers limited help and usually cannot issue visas. If you are unsure which one to approach, our guide to embassies and consulates explains the difference in plain language. Read the guide →
