An ambassador or high commissioner (for the Commonwealth of Nations) is an official envoy, especially a high-ranking diplomat who represents a state and is usually accredited to another sovereign state or to an international organization as the resident representative of their own government or sovereign or appointed for a special and often temporary diplomatic assignment. An ambassador/high commissioner is the ranking government representative stationed in a foreign capital or country.
The host country typically allows the ambassador/high commissioner control of specific territory called an embassy, whose territory, staff, and vehicles are generally afforded diplomatic immunity in the host country. Under the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, an ambassador/high commissioner has the highest diplomatic rank. Countries may choose to maintain diplomatic relations at a lower level by appointing a chargé d’affaires in place of an ambassador. The ambassadors of the Holy See are known as Apostolic Nuncios.
Here are the ambassadors and high commissioners of foreign countries serving in Kenya.
