Dr King, known for his “I Have A Dream” speech, received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964 and was assassinated in April 1968 in Memphis, Tennessee.
All embassy services, including visa and American passport and notary services will resume operation on Tuesday.
The embassy’s phone number for after-hours emergencies is 03-21685000.
