    In this instance, CIBTvisas is unable to assist you with your visa application. The consulate requires that travelers apply directly and a personal appearance may be necessary to obtain your visa.  We recommend that you contact the consulate to obtain the most current forms, instructions, and requirements before making a personal appearance at the consulate. Many consulates require an application appointment. Contact:

    Consulate of Venezuela
    365 Bloor St E,
    Toronto, ON M4W, Canada
    Telephone: 416-960-6070

    It is important to note that most consulates and embassies are only open to the public during the morning hours.  Please take these hours into consideration when contacting the consulate about your visa application.
