Does anyone know the address of the new location of the La Paz immigration office?

It's on 5th of Febrero, half block from Forjadores. Coming from the Soriana Plaza direction on Forjadores, turn Right on 5th of Febrero and start looking for parking. INM is a single story white building about 1/2 block from the corner and on the right side.

Thanks oladulce. I was looking for an address for my GPS. Probably no such thing! Not really familiar with La Paz. We'll be coming in from Los Barriles.

Actually the directions are a little confusing for someone coming from LB, because there is a Soriana Plaza on Foradores as well as at the Home Depot intersection.

When you come from LB you will pass the University on the left and about 400 yards later you come to a stop light. AS you proceed through the stop light you pass over a bridge that spans the major arroyo in La Paz. Continue straight ahead on Foradores past the Soriana/Cinemax plaza on your left to the intersection with the MCDonalds on the left. Turn right on 5 of Febrero ( the street with Micky D's ) and it's just a little way on the right.

Thanks morgaine7! I tried using GE but didn't have the address to pull it up. So...what did you use to find it? I'm presuming a close guess from other info??

Put in the lat and longitude that morgaine gave you in place of the address and Google earth will take you right there. You don't need the street address.

In the GE "street view" picture the building is blue and white and says "Quirúgica del Mar". Obviously taken before INM moved in. I don't see any address numbers on any surrounding buildings.

We're still learning our way around La Paz and I try to look up the "street view" before we try to find a business for the first time to get my bearings since I'm the navigator. Especially if something is in the one-way-street part of town.

We found it, no problems. However, we were there at 9 this AM and got out about 12:00....:no: Thanks everyone!
