H1B Visa stamp in Germany

[abhishes]

I already have my i797. I have never gotten a H1B stamped on my passport.

My company is asking me to travel to Germany. I'm not sure if its allowed to get H1B visa stamped in US consulate in Germany.

I tried searching the web and I found that its no longer allowed to get the visa stamped in Canada and Mexico. but I'm not sure about germany

My company just asked me to call the Consulate and asked, but the consulate won't even pick up the phone.

Please help me out here . (sorry if its a frequently asked question).

You can go to Canada. Lot of first time folks go there. Mexico does not allow first time H-1 B stamping.

As far as i know Canada allows first stamping. Mexico will not allow. Best email consulate for questions...

The waiting time in Canada is very long (first date is available in November) and my company wants me to travel to Germany this month itself.

The problem is that if Germany US consulate does not do first time stamping. Then I will be stranded out of the country for multiple months.
