Once I've applied for a citizenship c?dula in person, can I have it delivered to my nearest consulate outside of the Dominican Republic? I've never really been able to get a definitive answer to this question. Based on some of the posts on this forum it seems like it is possible. Some people have told me it's not possible but used to be and the government has changed its policy on this often. It would really help me out if I could get my documents delivered, even it was expensive. Any ideas?

Having c?dula sent to embassy/consulate abroad
No you can't have it delivered as you have to be there in person to get it, but there are cedula services overseas where you can get your cedula. Here is a list of them Junta Central Electoral de la Rep?blica Dominicana (JCE) > Dependencias > Cedulaci?n > Operativos M?viles en el Exterior

You can apply for your cedula ( in person) in any Dominican consulate when you are abroad. If you
live in the US and live in or near NYC here is the address:
Consulado Dominicano
1501 Broadway #410 New York, NY 10036
Tel: (212) 768-2480
live in the US and live in or near NYC here is the address:
Consulado Dominicano

Based on my experience this is not entirely correct. I have been told personally by a Dominican embassy in Europe that they have nothing to do with cedulas (and have never had anything to do with them...), unless of course this has changed very recently. Most likely the lists dv8 and Matilda posted are accurate in terms of which consulates do take care of this abroad.

What I posted is correct. I am Dominican and one of my sisters went to the Dominican Consulate
in NYC and renewed her cedula. You doubt it, call. That's why I listed the number.
I did say Consulate, not Embassy.

I think there was a slight misunderstanding. I did not question the information nor the contact details in any way, but rather was just thinking if it?s the case that ALL Dominican consulates (my apologies, included also embassies here) outside of the country do this.
Thanks for the clarification.
I am only aware of the Consulates in the US. But I did here in the news that thy are making it easier now for all those with citizenship to obtain their cedula abroad, for voting purposes.
This would be my first citizenship cedula. I've had a foreign cedula for years. I guess I'll call the consulate and ask if they issue first-time citizenship cedulas.
Is it possible this applies to renewing cedulas, and not to obtaining one for the first time?
