Editing Diplomatic mission (section)

==Multiple missions in a city==
Some cities may host more than one mission from the same country.

In [[Rome]], many states maintain separate missions to both [[Foreign relations of Italy|Italy]] and the [[Holy See]]. It is not customary for these missions to share premises nor personnel. At present, only the Iraqi and United States embassies to Italy and the [[Holy See]] share premises; however, separate ambassadors are appointed, one to each country. In the case of the [[Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations|UN's Food Agencies]], the sending country's ambassador to the Italian Republic is usually accredited as [[permanent representative]]. The United States maintains a separate [[United States Mission to the UN Agencies in Rome|mission to the UN agencies]], led by [[United States Ambassador to the United Nations Agencies for Food and Agriculture|its own ambassador]], but is located in the compound that houses its embassies to Italy and the Holy See.

Several cities host both embassies/consulates and permanent representatives to international organizations, such as [[New York City]] ([[United Nations]]), [[Washington, D.C.]] ([[Organization of American States]]), [[Jakarta]] ([[ASEAN]]) and [[Brussels]] ([[European Union]] and [[NATO|North Atlantic Treaty Organization]]).

In some cases, an embassy or consulate is divided between multiple locations in the same city. For example, the Bangladeshi Deputy High Commission in [[Kolkata]], has two locations: one at [[Park Circus]] and another, opened later, at Mirza Ghalib Street, to reduce overcrowding.
