Consular and Trade Offices in Georgia Governments from throughout the world have consular offices and trade representation in greater metropolitan Atlanta, Macon, and Savannah. Consular offices are established by foreign governments 1) to officially develop economic, commercial, scientific and cultural relations between the country they represent and the area in which they serve, and 2) to safeguard the interests of the sending country and its citizens traveling or residing in their consular district. Traditionally these duties include issuing and renewing passports and other official documents, helping travelers in distress, signing death certificates, legalizing or delivering official documents, and assisting travelers who have trouble with local law enforcement or immigration authorities. Larger consular offices often have missions that encompass cultural affairs and/or trade and investment, as well. There are seventy countries represented in Georgia, with twenty-five career consulates, forty- eight honorary consular offices and one dozen dedicated trade and investment agencies. Career officials are members of their country’s foreign (diplomatic) or commercial service, while honorary officials are local residents appointed by foreign governments to perform consular duties. The Dean of the Consular Corps, currently Mr. Steve Brereton, Consul General of Canada, is traditionally the career official with the longest tenure. More than a dozen foreign governments have independent operations in Atlanta with a mission to promote trade and/or investment between their countries or regions and Georgia and the Southeast U.S. ALBANIA Austrian Trade Commission Southern Region Office 3333 Riverwood Parkway, Southeast Honorary Consulate General of the Republic of Albania Suite 200 310 Somerplane Pl Atlanta, Georgia 30339 Avondale Estates, GA 30002 Web: www.advantageaustria.org/us Phone: (404) 299-6803 Phone: (678) 401-2870 Email: [email protected] Fax: (678) 403-1343 Mr. Theodore R.
