Definition
A group of people from one State present in another State in order to represent the sending State in the receiving State.
Description
It usually denotes a permanent mission, namely the office of a State's diplomatic representatives in the capital city of another State. Under international law, diplomatic missions enjoy an extraterritorial status and thus, although remaining part of the host (receiving) State's territory, they are accorded diplomatic immunity (for example: are exempt from local law) and in almost all respects treated as being part of the territory of the home (sending) State.
