About the mission
About the Netherlands Consulate in Queensland
The Netherlands Consulate in Queensland provides honorary consular representation for the Netherlands in Queensland.
The Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade officially designates the post as the Consulate of the Netherlands. It is headed by Ms Marjon Wind, Honorary Consul of the Netherlands.
The Queensland Consulate forms part of the wider Dutch diplomatic and consular network in Australia. The professional Consulate-General of the Netherlands is located in Sydney, while the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands is located in Canberra.
Honorary consulates have a different role from professional diplomatic and consular missions. Many formal Dutch government applications are therefore handled through the Consulate-General in Sydney, the Embassy, NetherlandsWorldwide or an authorised external service provider.
Consular assistance
Consular services
The Queensland office is an honorary consular post. Check the official NetherlandsWorldwide procedure before assuming that a formal Dutch government application can be processed through the Honorary Consul.
Dutch citizens
Dutch citizens in Queensland can use the official Dutch consular network for guidance on consular matters and assistance in appropriate circumstances.
Consular guidance
The Honorary Consul provides local representation in Queensland, while formal Dutch government services may be handled through the professional Consulate-General in Sydney or another designated application location.
Passports and ID cards
Dutch passport and identity card applications can currently be submitted through the authorised VFS Global service in Brisbane by appointment. VFS Global is an external service provider and is separate from the Honorary Consulate.
Formal applications: always check NetherlandsWorldwide for the current application location. Do not assume that passports, ID cards, visas, certificates or nationality procedures can be processed by the Honorary Consul in Queensland.

Appointments with the Netherlands Consulate in Queensland

A public street address for the honorary post is not currently provided in the official DFAT listing. Contact the Dutch consular network before arranging an in-person visit and obtain current attendance instructions.
Passport appointments are different: the Netherlands currently offers Dutch passport and ID card applications through VFS Global in Brisbane. An appointment with VFS Global is not an appointment with the Netherlands Honorary Consulate.
