Diplomatic missions of Tuvalu

Diplomatic missions of Tuvalu

Tuvalu has a population of 12,100 [http://www.tuvaluislands.com/small-tv.htm] , making it the third least populated independent country in the world, just ahead of Nauru (10,000) and the Vatican (700). It consequently neither needs nor can support anything but the barest diplomatic network.

Tuvalu has only three diplomatic missions abroad: a High-Commission in Suva (opened in 1976), its office at the United Nations (opened in 2001), and a new embassy in Brussels, Belgium, home city of the European Union headquarters (opened in 2008) [http://www.pacificmagazine.net/news/2008/07/23/tuvalu-opens-new-european-mission] [http://www.tuvaluislands.com/news/archived/1999/1999-07-26.htm] . Tuvalu also has honorary consulates in Sydney, Auckland, Tokyo, London, Khaosiung, Basle, Singapore, Hamburg and Seoul [http://www.un.int/wcm/content/site/tuvalu/cache/offonce/pid/3718;jsessionid=297AAB2EECB3D1131D7FE420C13C9C92] .
