Consulates and High Commissions in Goa
Consulates and High Commissions in Goa
Goa is home to the Consulate General of Portugal. Obviously so, as this distant country has had close and long historic and colonial ties.
Getting a Portuguese passport -- or, rather, "regaining" Portuguese nationality, going by what it actually implies -- is no longer as easy as it once was for people of Goan origin. This continues to be available, even if difficult and time-consuming to obtain now, and also for those born after 1961. There are still many queueing up at the lavishly done-up consulate.
Portugal's consulate has itself changed home thrice in a few years. It has now settled along the route to Panjim's one-time -- and still, in some ways -- elite area of Altinho.
Britain, which has a significant number of tourists visiting the region, also has its Tourist Assistance Office (earlier designated as a consular officer) based here. Germany, Austria (in the port town of Vasco da Gama) and Italy have their honorary consuls.
