Opening hours
The Consulate General can deal with most queries and requests via phone or email, and it is not usually necessary to come to the Consulate in person. So we ask that you contact the Consulate General by phone, email or via regular mail in the first instance. If necessary, we can then arrange an appointment for you to come to the Consulate.
You may reach us by calling (617) 267-9330 and leaving a message in the relevant voicemail box. Alternatively, you may contact us by email. A Consular officer will return your call or email as promptly as possible. Phone lines are open from 10:00 to 17:00 every weekday.
If you are an Irish citizen and have an emergency outside of those hours, please call and leave a message on the emergency line and the officer on duty will return your call as soon as possible. Please note that this line is strictly for consular emergencies only.
