U.S. Mission Mexico

Mission Mexico

The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Overseas Buildings Operations (OBO) builds and maintains diplomatic facilities around the world for the conduct of U.S. foreign policy. OBO is building four new consulates in Hermosillo, Guadalajara, Merida, and Nogales Mexico and a new embassy in Mexico City. This is a physical investment in the U.S. – Mexico relationship.

Bilateral Relationship

The bilateral relationship between the United States and Mexico, marked by continuous engagement and a celebrated bicentennial, shapes public security, trade, border management, and cultural exchange and fosters deep cooperation and joint security initiatives.

Customer Service

Expanded consular spaces will improve the customer experience through an expedited flow of visitors and processing, weather protection, and safety considerations.

Economic Union

The U.S.-Mexico economic relationship, now the largest U.S. trade partnership, supports regional integration and competitiveness, with diplomatic facilities playing a pivotal role in fostering positive economic, environmental, and social impacts through job creation, local procurement, and business partnerships.

Sustainability

The new U.S. consulates and embassy in Mexico commit to environmental stewardship and cultural sensitivity implementing sustainability methods and climate resilience through rigorous standards, native landscaping, water conservation, and energy-efficient materials.
