Is there any peripheral consular offices of Italy in Minnessota?

Question

I am a us residence only that is why they require me to get a visa.

I am planning to go on a week vacation in Italy, but based on their website I still need to go to Chicago just to apply in person... that does sound not reasonable.. right?

Anyone?? Pleasee...

Answer 1

there is one in Minnessota, at this address:

Honorary Consul

Jane Calabria Mc Peak

1844 Portland Avenue

St Paul MN 55104-6062

tel:[phone]

call them and ask;

since it is an Honrary consul it should be able to provide you with a visa, no, it does not sound reasonable since there is one in Mn ,

here is the web site of the Chicago consulate :

ps:

i did find the answer: the Italian consulate in

Chicago does cover:

and since you are an US resident, you cannot participate in the VWP visa waiver program.therefore, yes you need a visa,

Answer 2

If you are going on a week vacation you do not need visa to enter Italy.You may enter Italy with a valid passport.
