Malian Honorary Consulate in the United Kingdom

Mali has an honorary consulate in London; honorary consulates handle emergencies and simple certifications rather than visas or passports.

British citizens must obtain a visa before travelling to Mali. Mali has no embassy or career consulate in the United Kingdom, and its honorary consulates normally do not issue visas; applications go to a mission of Mali accredited to the United Kingdom from another country.
