Category:Diplomatic missions by country

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Countries establish diplomatic missions in other countries in order to further foreign policy objectives. They will chose to maintain a mission in another country depending on the size and maturity of the bilateral relationship, the political climate, and resource constraints.

Diplomatic missions include embassies situated in the host country's capital (or high commission in the case of relations between Commonwealth states), and consulates (and larger consulates general) established in other cities. In some cases a country's missions to certain places, such as in Taiwan, Kosovo and Palestine, may be named in a way so as not to imply tacit recognition of a state or government's sovereignty.

Honorary consulates also can provide a limited range of services, although they are headed by a volunteer who does not enjoy the immunities and privileges of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations. Honorary consulates are not included in these articles.

Most countries have diplomatic representation in cities that host major international organisations, such as New York City (headquarters of the United Nations), Geneva and Brussels.
