Which Montenegrin office issues passports and visas?

It is headed by Stanica Anđić (ambassador, credentials presented on 18 November 2025).

What can an honorary consul do?
An honorary consul is not a career diplomat but a local resident – often a business person or lawyer – appointed by Montenegro and approved by the host country. Depending on the powers granted, the honorary consul can help Montenegrin citizens in an emergency (lost passport, accident, arrest), pass on applications and documents to the embassy, and certify signatures or life certificates. Passports and visas are not issued by an honorary consulate; they remain the responsibility of the embassy or a career consulate.
