A Consul is an official appointed by the government of one nation to look after the welfare of its citizens and its commercial interests in another country.

Consular work has a long, varied and most interesting history as it has evolved with a rich history of 2,524 years. Consuls date back to antiquity.

The institution of Honorary Consuls had been regulated by customary law for centuries until Consular functions were defined and classified by the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations in 1963.
