Passports and other formal consular services for Jamaican citizens are handled by the Jamaican embassy responsible for Malta.
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 Jamaica and approved by the host country. Depending on the powers granted, the honorary consul can help Jamaican 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.
