United States Consulate General in Calgary

The U.S. Consulate General in Calgary serves Alberta, Saskatchewan, and the Northwest Territories, a region dominated by Canada's energy sector. The consulate is a critical post for managing the extensive U.S.-Canada energy relationship, supporting trade and investment in oil, gas, and renewable energy. It also provides essential services to a large number of American citizens living and working in the region.

The consulate offers vital services to American citizens, including passport renewals, Consular Reports of Birth Abroad, and notarial services. The American Citizen Services unit is particularly active given the large expatriate community working in the energy industry, providing both routine and emergency assistance.

Through SelectUSA, the consulate promotes the U.S. as an investment destination for Canadian energy companies and investors. It highlights opportunities for diversification and expansion into the U.S. market, particularly in areas like shale gas, renewable energy, and energy technology, connecting investors with relevant U.S. economic development organizations.

The consulate engages in public diplomacy to strengthen the U.S. relationship with the people of its consular district. It supports educational exchanges and cultural programs that foster a greater understanding of American society, policy, and values, often with a focus on shared interests in energy and the environment.

Strict security procedures are in effect. Visitors may not bring electronic devices, large bags, or any liquids into the consulate. The consulate is located in a downtown office building.
