About the Honorary Consulate of Iceland in Quito
The honorary consul is Julieta Alejandra Muñoz Ordóñez, according to the Ecuadorian foreign ministry’s diplomatic list.
Which Icelandic office handles passports and visas?
According to the Ecuadorian foreign ministry’s diplomatic list, Iceland is represented in Ecuador by the Embassy of Iceland in Ottawa (Canada). For passports, visas and other formal consular services, contact the Embassy of Iceland in Ottawa; the honorary consulate in Ecuador can help with first steps.
Do Icelandic citizens need a visa for Ecuador?
No. Iceland is not on the Ecuadorian foreign ministry’s list of countries whose nationals need a visa (30 August 2025), so its nationals do not need a visa for a tourist visit to Ecuador.
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 Iceland and approved by the host country. Depending on the powers granted, the honorary consul can help Icelandic 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.
