The off-shell electromagnetic vertex of pions and kaons is calculated to {ital O}({ital p}{sup 4}) in the momentum expansion within the framework of chiral perturbation theory to one loop. The formalism of Gasser and Leutwyler is extended to accommodate the most general form for off-shell Green`s functions in the pseudoscalar meson sector. To that end we identify the structures at {ital O}({ital p}{sup 4}) which were initially removed by using the equation of motion of the lowest-order lagrangian. {copyright} {ital 1995} {ital American} {ital Institute} {ital of} {ital Physics}.
