Just wanted to say you should be careful here. From vast experience, I can assure you that the terms I\'ve used are the most common---if it refers to the Ministry (in the U.S., it\'s the State Department). It is DEFINITELY NOT an embassy nor a consulate---although an embassy can have a \"chancellery or chancery\". The following terms (copied and pasted) are from the Oxford Superlex:

cancillería f
a (de una embajada) chancery, chancellery
b (AmS) (ministerio) þState Department (in US), þForeign Office (in UK)

Again from experience, \"apostiles\" on documents always bear the stamp of a Ministry---unless they specifically state (and I\'ve never seen it) \"Chancellery of the XXX Embassy\".

Luck!
