Tips For a Smooth Visit
Security
Security is always important at our Embassies and Consulates. When you visit Embassy Rangoon or our Consular Office, please bring your U.S. passport as identification. Our Embassy guards outside the building will request to see that identification.
All visitors pass through a metal detector, and your bags will be scanned. Visitors may not bring liquids into the Embassy, but water fountains are available for visitors.
If you are a U.S. citizen that has lost your passport, try to contact the Consular Office before coming to the Embassy.
Visiting with Infants, Children / Other Specific Needs
Feel free to contact us to coordinate the best time to come to the Consular Office if you have specific needs. For instance, parents that must bring infants for passport or CRBA applications can contact us to confirm a good time to visit. Although not needed, you may request to schedule an appointment between 2:00 pm and 3:30 pm.
Note to all United States citizens traveling to Burma: ATM machines do not exist in Burma, no Burmese bank accepts traveler’s checks, and Burmese businesses do not accept credit cards. As a result, foreign travelers must enter the country with enough cash to cover all expenses, including unexpected ones. Please plan accordingly to ensure a smooth trip.
