Besides helping to promote German-US relations in their region, honorary consuls are also able to assist US and German citizens in some legal and consular issues related to Germany. However, they are not authorized to provide all services, e.g. they are not allowed to issue visas. If you are unsure if a honorary consul can assist your with your specific concern, please contact the Legal and Consular Department of the Consulate General Atlanta.

"Sehr geehrte Frau Drahola,

Das ist ja ein unglaublicher Service bei Ihnen in Charlotte!! So schnell Antwort zu erhalten und dazu noch eine positive Zusage mit Termin für mich und meine Söhne! Ich kann es nicht glauben!! Ich bin Ihnen zu großem Dank verpflichtet!
Ja, natürlich nehmen wir diesen Termin sehr gerne wahr und kommen nach Charlotte!
Ich werde die nötigen Dokumente vorbereiten und mitbringen."
"Lieber Klaus,

Eines der Dinge, die ich in Bezug auf die Pandemie ganz besonderes bedaure, ist es dich im ganzen vorigen Jahr nicht getroffen zu haben. Insofern war es selbstverständlich, dass ich mich zu deinem Vortrag bei Rotary eingewählt habe.
Ich arbeite noch daran, mir den Ruf zu verdienen, dass ich mit mit Lob nicht geize. Aber bei dir weiß ich nicht, wo ich anfangen oder aufhören soll: Deine Vorträge sind klar strukturiert, du bist immer sehr gut vorbereitet, du sprichst angenehm und überlegt und wenn es dann an die Fragen geht, legst du eher noch einen Zahn zu. Die Tiefe und Breite deines Wissens auf dem Gebiet der Politik sind absolut unglaublich!"
"Ich habe meinen neuen Paß erhalten; herzlichen Dank nochmals für den schnellen Termin."
"Dear Ms. Drahola and Mr. Becker,

I want to thank you for all your help yesterday in processing my application for a German passport. The process went much smoother than I imagined, given that my German documents were over 60 years old. As you both saw, my knowledge of German is, unfortunately, limited. As I mentioned to Mr. Becker, after my family immigrated to the US in 1956, when I was 3 years old, my parents emphasized that I needed to speak English, as we were now in the US. They did not want me to learn German, as being American was very important to them (...)."
"Dear Mr. Becker,

It was extremely kind of you to contact me so quickly.  I was quite surprised to find the German consulate office not only a welcoming representation of my heritage but, also of my devotion to the arts.  Foremost, I would like to thank your staff for the extraordinary kindness I was shown.  The renewing of my German documents has always been a most dreaded event for me because the staff in Atlanta is efficiently bureaucratic to the point of insulting rudeness.  In contrast, your staff was friendly and helpful from the first phone call to the last signature.  After living in the States for 50 years, my German is no longer at its best, but that does not change the fact that I am German.  Many thanks for all the kindness and understanding."
