Embassies & Consulates in Honduras

Consulates and Embassy Duties

Consuls

A consuls' duties are to protect the interests of citizens temporarily or permanently living in the foreign country where the consulate works. Consulates issue passports and visas, but that is not their primary obligation. A consul is there to assist companies to invest in the country for which they work, encourage the importing and exporting of products and services between the two countries. Consuls may also legalize and notarize documents. Surprisingly enough, consuls are not usually granted diplomatic immunity.

Ambassadors

An Ambassador serves as head of a diplomatic mission. A Resident Ambassador lives within the country to which they are assigned. A Non-Resident Ambassador does not live in the country where they are assigned to work, but lives in a nearby country. It is possible that a resident ambassador to a country might also be a non-resident ambassador to one or more other countries.

In addition to the responsibilities of the Consulate, an Ambassador works in the field of politics and commercialism. The embassy is involved in negotiating, analyzing and reporting on political and economic develpments. The ambassador builds up a network of contacts and takes care of the practical arrangements for state and ministerial visits.

The Embassy also briefs journalists and promotes their country's image by monitoring the international media coverage and international politics relating to their particular country.
