Resumen

The Royal Danish Honorary Consulate General in Mumbai is the western Indian relay for the Royal Danish Embassy in New Delhi, located at L&T House on N.M. Marg in the Ballard Estate area of central Mumbai — the heritage commercial district that hosts the Larsen & Toubro head office and several other corporate landmarks. The Honorary Consul General, Mr Anilkumar Manibhai Naik (himself a long-standing leader of L&T), provides limited passport-related consular relay for Danish nationals across Maharashtra, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Goa. The Honorary Consulate's authorised services are narrow and specific: extension of passports, provisional passports, applications for children's passports, and Danish or international driver's licence services. Schengen visa intake for the western Indian catchment is operated by VFS Denmark in Mumbai (separate facility); decisioning happens at the Royal Danish Embassy in New Delhi. The Mumbai consular catchment includes the substantial Danish maritime-and-shipping community around the A.P. Moller-Maersk Mumbai operations, the Danish industrial-management community at Vestas, Grundfos, Novo Nordisk and other Danish multinationals' western India operations, and the long-stay Danish community on the Goan coast.

Authorised services: extension of passports, provisional passports, applications for children's passports, and Danish/international driver's licence services. The Honorary Consulate General provides on-the-ground passport-related relay for Danish nationals in the western Indian states. For full consular services including Schengen visa applications, residence-permit applications, civil-status notifications, voter registration and emergency consular assistance beyond the authorised scope, applicants contact the Royal Danish Embassy in New Delhi. The Mumbai post is the on-the-ground front line for Danish emergencies in the western states.

Área de Servicio

Maharashtra, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Goa, and the Daman and Diu / Dadra and Nagar Haveli union territories. The Honorary Consulate General does not provide visa services — Schengen visa intake routes through the VFS Denmark Mumbai centre with decisioning at the Embassy in New Delhi.

Notas Especiales

L&T House at N.M. Marg in Ballard Estate is in the heritage commercial district of southern Mumbai, walking distance from the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus and the broader Fort Mumbai cultural cluster. The post is operated by an Honorary Consul General rather than a career Danish diplomat — service is by appointment, with the working scope of an honorary post (passport-related services, emergency relay) rather than the full decisioning capability of the Embassy.
Preguntas frecuentes

A narrow and specific scope authorised by the Royal Danish MFA: extension of passports, provisional passports, applications for children's passports, and Danish/international driver's licence services.

No. Schengen visa intake for the western Indian catchment (Maharashtra, Gujarat, MP, Chhattisgarh, Goa) is operated by VFS Global Denmark at the Mumbai Visa Application Centre, not at the Honorary Consulate. Applicants book online through the VFS Denmark India portal, attend the VFS centre for biometric capture, and pay the Schengen fee plus VFS service fee. Decisioning is at the Embassy in New Delhi.
