A diplomatic mission is also known as a foreign mission. This refers to a group of people from one sovereign state or an organization, present in another state to officially represent the sending state/organization. An Embassy refers to the main office of a country’s diplomatic representative to another country which is usually found in the receiving state’s capital city.
A consulate, on the other hand, is a smaller diplomatic office of a representative in another country. The main diplomatic office is called an Embassy and is located in the capital city while consulates are usually located in other large cities within the receiving country. In cases where a country has no embassy, the consulate could be located in the capital city.
Consulates usually deal with issues such as visas, licenses for import and export, passports for their own citizens. This post provides a complete list of Embassies and Consulates located in Nigeria.
