Niger has only 24 permanent embassies abroad, although more have permanent representation in Niamey, either through national embassies or other representatives.  The United Kingdom, for instance, operates its permanent office for relations to Niger from [[Accra]], [[Ghana]], while Niger's permanent representative resides at the Nigerien Embassy in [[Paris]].

Many other small or distant nations have no formal diplomatic relations with Niamey except through their respective consulates at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City.  Australia, for instance, only signed the instruments of formal diplomatic relations with Niamey on 7 May 2009, through their respective consular officials at the UN.<ref name="sahelaus">[http://lesahel.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1736:diplomatiele-niger-et-la-republique-daustralie-etablissent-des-relations-diplomatiques&catid=34:actualites&Itemid=53 "Diplomatie/le Niger et la République d'Australie établissent des relations diplomatiques"].
