Foreign Embassies are bilateral missions abroad. Foreign Embassies promote foreign interests abroad. Embassies also play an important role in development, cultural affairs and contacts with the press. The activities of all foreign embassies are coordinated from their Ministries of Foreign Affairs. Often, while the terms embassy and consulate are used together, however, the two are very different.

 

An Embassy is the larger and more important of the two and is described as a permanent diplomatic mission which is generally located in a country's capital city. The embassy is responsible for representing the home country abroad and handling major diplomatic issues, such as preserving the rights of citizens abroad. The ambassador is the highest official in the embassy and acting as the chief diplomat and spokesperson for the home government. Ambassadors are typically appointed by the highest level of the home government.
