Philippine Consulate in Colorado
Colorado is served by the Philippine Consulate General in San Francisco, along with Utah, Wyoming and the northern halves of California and Nevada. There is no Philippine office anywhere in the Mountain West.
Where Colorado is served from
If you live in Colorado, your applications go to the Philippine Consulate General in San Francisco. The same post also covers Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Northern California (46 counties, from Alameda to Yuba) and Northern Nevada (Carson City and 13 counties) — one office for the whole district.

How far the consulate is from your city
Driving distances to the post that covers each city, calculated at posted speed limits and without traffic:
| City | Philippine post | Distance | Journey |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fort Collins | San Francisco | 1,188 miles | 20 h 23 min by car |
| Denver | San Francisco | 1,254 miles | 21 h 38 min by car |
| Aurora | San Francisco | 1,257 miles | 21 h 41 min by car |
| Colorado Springs | San Francisco | 1,322 miles | 22 h 50 min by car |
From Colorado Springs that is 22 h 50 min by car each way, which makes it worth checking the consular outreach schedule before committing to the drive: missions bring passport and dual citizenship services to cities without a post, and the appointments are free.
Before you plan the journey
A large share of the trips people make to a Philippine consulate were never necessary. These three are handled entirely elsewhere:
- PSA certificates — birth, marriage, death, CENOMAR — come from the Philippine Statistics Authority and are ordered online.
- Apostilles on documents issued in Colorado come from the state’s own competent authority. Since 15 May 2019 the consulate cannot authenticate them.
- NBI clearance is issued in the Philippines and applied for by mail; only the fingerprint card needs a consular officer.
What does require you in person is anything carrying your biometrics or your signature: a passport, the oath of allegiance and a special power of attorney.
Denver to San Francisco is a two-and-a-half-hour flight, which makes Colorado one of the states where checking the consular outreach schedule first genuinely pays.
