The Honorary Consulate General of Romania in Southwest Florida aims at developing friendly relations between Romania and United States of America, while promoting Romanian-American cooperation in the political, economic, technical, scientific and cultural fields, with specific focus on the local level. The Honorary Consulates are established by decision of the Romanian Government with the consent of the United States authorities with a view to foster the bilateral economic, business, cultural, and academic relations between the two countries The Honorary Consulates play an important role in helping the Romanian-American communities in their jurisdiction to promote their national and cultural heritage The Honorary Consulates do not perform any of the services that are regularly rendered by the embassies or career consular offices of Romania. They do not process passports or travel documents, do not issue visas, do not authenticate or certify documents. These services are only rendered by the Romanian Embassy in Washington DC and by the Romanian consular offices in New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago The Honorary Consuls may not use this capacity to serve as consultants or legal advisors to any person or business on matters that fall into the competencies and prerogatives of the Romanian authorities, except in exceptional circumstances. For services rendered under such exceptional circumstances the Honorary Consuls may not charge any taxes, fees, or reimbursements All services and any form of assistance in any respect rendered by the Honorary Consuls at the request and to the benefit of the members of the Romanian-American communities in their jurisdictions are free of charge.

Government, Embassies and Consulates
As an Honorary Consulate we are working to support the local Romanian community and the strengthening of relations of Romania with local Washington State officials. We are doing all this work on a voluntary basis, we are not employees of the Romanian government and we do not receive any financial support from Romania. As a result, there are legal limits to the Consular work we can do. Please note: - We cannot legally issue any documents. We cannot legally process any requests for passports, birth certificates, citizenship, visa, etc. We do not have the legal authority to do so. - We are neither qualified, nor can legally provide any consular advice. We do not know what documentation is necessary for various administrative issues, such as power of attorney, legal statements and alike. If you need such Consular advice, please reach out to the General Consulate of Romania in Los Angeles, as that is the entity legally recognized by the Romanian and US Governments to provide such advice. Thank you for your understanding. The Honorary Consulate work focuses mostly on civic, cultural, community, business and institutional relations. We are more than happy to provide you information about local cultural events, support Romanian government official visits, answer general questions and provide guidance about the local community as well as contacts from Washington State governmental and business entities to officials in the Romanian government. We strive to do this in an objective way, but please note, we do this on a voluntary basis.
