601901
if your passport is stolen or you get in trouble with the police, you go to the embassy. when in their grounds you are treated to the same laws and rights as you would in the USA. basically a home from home. they will keep you safe. \nthat's only part of what they do, they can replace a stolen passport for you and if you are an American living abroad and you want to go home then you go there for all the right paperwork.\nif you were once an American but emigrated, became a citizen of another country and want to go home then you go there and become an American citizen again. \nmostly its good for getting you out of trouble with the police.

What exactly do consulates do?\nConsular sections of embassies and consulates issue visas and undertake passport, documentation and maritime services for citizens of their countries and masters of their countries' vessels. Consulates are either branches of embassies or freestanding offices of a foreign government's Foreign Ministry (almost always) outside the host country's capital city.\n\nHow are they different from embassies?\nThey are either a branch of the embassy, or a freestanding diplomatic mission outside the capital city. They do similar work: political, economic and commercial reporting as well as consular services as above.\n\nWhat are the qualifications needed to become a consul?\nUnderstanding of foreign affairs, knowledge of foreign language(s). No particular academic qualification, but nearly all have a college degree. \n\nHow the U.S. federal, state, and local government interacts with consulates?\nConsulates (like embassies) are offices abroad of the Foreign Ministry (the U.S. Department of State). They cooperate with subsovereign (state and local) governments when asked, and some states (and the Port Authority of NY & NJ) have offices abroad that work with embassies/consulates on matters of common interest, especially commercial promotion.\n\nHow does a goverment decide where and when to locate a consulate in a foreign country?\nIn some cases it's because there is a large expatriate community; or because the city is important commercially. It's a matter for the sending country with the consent of the receiving (host) country.\n\nHow long can a person be a consul?\nAn entire career of 20-35 years. But a consul (or consul general) as the head of a consular mission probably doesn't do much "consular work" and in a next posting, or in Washington (or whatever capital city his/her home is), would not be called a "consul".\n\nHow do you become a consul? (Election, most qualified, etc.)\nIn the USA by appointment by the Dept. of State. Almost always after becoming a foreign service officer by passing an exam.\n\nWho oversees the consulates?\nThe ambassador of a country usually has overall control; but some consulates are directed directly from the Foreign Ministry.\n\nHow are consulates funded?\nBy the Foreign Ministry (State Dept.) budget; except that some specialized offices within a consulate are funded by other ministries (government departments)

As a European it is relatively straightforward to work both in the European Community but also in many other countries. However, we do need some control at the borders, we do not want too many Americans coming back home all at once. The US could make it easier to enter other countries if they offered reciprocal arrangements. What is curious about your comments is that you think everyone wants to go to the good old USA, I do not thinks so, there are nicer places to visit.

Definitely not true.  Americans, like any other travelers, need a Passport to travel to other foreign countries. \n\nYou are probably thinking of when you go down to local border towns like Mexicalli & Tijuana where you can easily cross the border to shop or sightsee in these border towns.\n\nFor the rest of the world, you need the country's respective visa.

In one word, Yes.  Our embassies are like being in the States, and as long as the notary is duly qualified the POA would be recognized in New York, just as one duly notarized in Pennsylvania or South Dakota (for example) would be.

Unless you are a diplomat, you cannot bring your personal employees over here (USA).  That is why you received no replies.

All the US embassies report to the US Department of State.  I have attached both the US State Department embassy general website and the Sri Lankan embassy website.  Hope this helps.
