How does an Embassy request reserved on street parking at its chancery or chancery annex in the District of Columbia?
A – Street parking is extremely limited in the District of Columbia. However, DC regulations permit a limited amount of reserved parking around property used as a chancery or chancery annex. The whole process takes several months. The Embassy can begin by submitting a written request to the Property Section of OFM that includes the property address and a name and telephone number of the contact person familiar with the request. If the property is leased, the request should include a letter from the landlord or management company stating that they do not have any objection to the request. Requests can be mailed or faxed see Contract Information Section 16. OFM will then make the request to the DC authorities. A – Consulates outside the Washington D.C. metropolitan area should consult with their servicing OFM Regional Office for procedures.
