About Consulate General of Mexico in Atlanta
The Consulate General of Mexico in Atlanta serves Mexicans residing in Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee (74 counties east of the Tennessee River).
The Consulate General in Atlanta opened its doors in 1977 with the purpose of offering services and protection to what was already a significant Mexican community, and at the same time to accentuate the presence of Mexico in this dynamic regional economy. This Consular Representation became a Consulate General in 1992.
Throughout more than three decades, the tasks of economic protection and promotion carried out by the Consulate have reached high levels of quality and efficiency.
Currently, the Mexican Consulate General in Atlanta provides services and protects the human rights of almost 900,000 Mexicans in Alabama, Georgia and Tennessee (74 counties east of the Tennessee River). Together, these three states have an area equivalent to almost a quarter of the Mexican territory, with an economic output almost as large as Mexico's gross domestic product.
