My wife's friend a Belorussian citizen, is marrying a UK citizen living in Germany ( dual citizenship) and both of them want to come here for a visit at some point. I know that she, as a Bela citizen, needs a visa to visit but normally she would go to Warsaw to do this. However, living in Germany, can she go to the US Embassy in Hamburg or Berlin. It would be much easier for her. Thanks for any feedback.

I am not sure about what I am going to say here, so have them check it out. She may use any US Embassy anywhere. Now the part I am not sure about? Germany and England have an agreement with the US that each others citizens can visit with out a visa. It maybe be that a resident of Germany can also visit with out a Visa. Have them check at the nearest US Embassy or Consulate.

You have to be a citizen of the VWP country to get to the US without a visa.

Being a resident of that country is not enough.

And if you reside in the EU coutry, sure you can go to the nearest embassy to get a visa. It doesn't have to be in Warsaw.

You can go to any embassy in the world for a tourist visa, it doesn't have to be where you live or where you have citizenship. They might just ask questions if you go somewhere weird, but since she lives in Germany, it should be fine to just go to the nearest one.

Berlin and Frankfurt are consulates, not embassies, but yes, that's where she can go for a visa.

I have a friend (in the wider sense of the term) who just traveled from Melbourne, Australia, to Moscow, Russia, in a 1913 Ford Model T, alone, and he had to get 40-some visas along the way. Imagine he would have had to book 40+ flights from Africa, the Middle East, and East Europe back to Australia to get those visitor visas!

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
