Embassy

😠 Terrible service! I have been calling for weeks to have some very basic questions answered in preparation for a vacation to Senegal, they gave me multiple emails to email and each time I sent an email I receive an automated message with absolutely no help. I had my sister go in person, she was told... People often mention visa, people, vous, pour, embassy, States, questions, work, good, United,

    Terrible service! I have been calling for weeks to have some very basic questions answered in preparation for a vacation to Senegal, they gave me multiple emails to email and each time I sent an email I receive an automated message with absolutely no help. I had my sister go in person, she was told to come back because the individual that could answer her questions is only there Mon-Thu. She came back on Monday only to be given an email that was invalid. Three weeks later and I have no clear answer to my questions. They are quite inefficient, and not very helpful. I am deeply disappointed 😞.

    Good service inside, but really strict on what you can take into the consulate area. They have no lockers so you have take your bag and phone to a boutique down the street. I couldn't wear my Fitbit inside, I thought that was a little overkill.

    I have never in my life seen such ignorance..I am ashamed to be called an american. These people at this place are either on drugs or just hate africans. These people called my fiance to that place 8 times...they called twice yesterday on the phone telling him his visa is ready, bring his passport and he can come pick it up..he gets there and for the 4th time these people take his passport..give him that same green slip pf paper they have given him 4 times in the pass and told him to come back in a few weeks....I truly want to find another country better then this one to live in..I am experiencing first hand the complete lack of intelligence and integrity that this place calls, I will not even dignify it by calling it an embassy

    You are zero stared. Why is it that the US embassy in Dakar is systematically refusing to issue passports to duly entitled American citizens.I know an untold number of US citizens whose passport applications have been denied for the most ludicrous reasons.Some are asked if the hospital bills for their birth have been paid.Seriously!Such blatant disrespect and disregard of the laws have to stop and stop right now.If you hate so much people taking advantage of the 14th amendment as many millions have done including your immigrant forefathers and continue to do,just change the constitution but until then keep your oath of office instead of violating it and disgracing this nation.This rogue behavior has to stop.

    My sister in law took off work to go to her visa appointment yesterday, so she can take my daughter to visit my family during school break. The gentleman only asked her 2 questions, they didn't offer her a Wolof interpetor. They asked if she worked and had children but didn't ask to see her corresponding documents or verification. She brought everything required marriage license, paystubs, etc and they gave her a denial form stating she didn't have any proof of employment. Even an elderly woman before her didn't speak French and the guy just started speaking to her without realizing she didn't comprehend. Other folks waiting in line had to notify him an request an interpreter on her behalf. How inconsiderate is that?! My cousin in law has gone through this process as has my other sister in law, husband, brother in law and Mother in law. My friend is an immigration lawyer in California, and she says the counselor officials don't have to meet any requirements to deny orngrant visas, it's their own gut feeling which sometimes, let's be real, can be prejudiced and biased. They way they just randomly decide to deny or grant visas without merit is ridiculous.

    The guy at the door that supposed to give you information is the worst person in life he doesn’t like helping people like what he was paying for. Whatever questions you have he will tell you I don’t know but after going to ask outside and bring documents they ask from inside the day before he will tell you this is not the right document and my parents make sure to ask him where they should go to change the document he told them I don’t know the day after bringing paper from the community end up telling them they should go to court please make sure to hire good heart people because people are traveling from gambia and Guinea but you see them cry at the door because of that person

    (Translated by Google) The Embassy of the United States in Dakar and practically the only embassy for 6 countries in West Africa if you want to have a visa that you live for example in Guinea in Gambia or Senegal and again in Mali and once you your appointment is in the shade it is at this embassy that you should go by presenting the required documents you will pass your audition so I hope you will get your visa (Original) L'ambassade des États-Unis à Dakar et pratiquement le seul ambassades pour 6 pays en Afrique de l'Ouest si vous souhaitez avoir un visa que vous habitiez par exemple en Guinée en Gambie ou au Sénégal et encore au Mali et une fois que vous aurez obtenu votre rendez-vous c'est à l'ombre c'est à cette ambassade que vous devriez vous rendre en présentant les documents requis vous passerez votre audition ainsi je l'espère pour vous vous aurez votre visa

    Absolutely ridiculous that you've got lovely flowers, butterflies and a gorgeous mosaic outside, which is the most stunning mosaic that I've ever seen, and we're not allowed to take a photo of any of it!! Absolutely ridiculous. Put the mosaic where people can feel comfortable admiring it and get photos for lasting memories.
