diplomatic premises |
|
| |
|
|
| |
The buildings or parts of buildings used as a diplomatic mission, including the residence of the head of mission. Such premises are inviolable, and may not therefore be entered by the receiving state except with the consent of the head of mission. The receiving state also has an obligation to protect diplomatic premises. For its part, the sending state is obliged not to use the premises in a manner which is incompatible with the functions of a diplomatic mission. Whether premises used for such purposes as an information centre, a tourist office, or an embassy school may be classified as ‘diplomatic’ is a matter to be agreed between the sending and the receiving state. In 1985 Britain decided that that she would no longer allow tourist offices and places used for educational activity to be classified as diplomatic premises. See also exterritoriality; Hotman. |
