List of High Commissioners from the United Kingdom to Mozambique
- List of High Commissioners from the United Kingdom to Mozambique
The High Commissioner from the United Kingdom to Mozambique is the United Kingdom's foremost diplomatic representative in Mozambique, in charge of the UK's diplomatic mission in Maputo.
This list is of the British heads of diplomatic missions to Mozambique since the country's independence from Portugal in 1975, including the British Ambassadors from 1975 to 1995.
High Commissioners to Mozambique
Countries belonging to the Commonwealth of Nations exchange High Commissioners, rather than Ambassadors. There are some technical differences, as Commonwealth countries are not "foreign", but the two offices amount to much the same.
The following have served as British High Commissioner to Mozambique since 1995:
*1996 to 2000: Bernard Jonathan Everett CVO
*2000 to 2003 Robert Dewar CMG
*2003 to 2007: Howard Parkinson CVO
*2007 to date: Andrew Keith Soper
Ambassadors to Mozambique
Between 1975 and 1995, Mozambique was an independent country but had not become a member of the Commonwealth, so British heads of mission to Maputo were styled Ambassadors:
*1979 to 1980: Achilles Symeon Papadopoulos CMG
*1980 to 1984: John Stewart [cite web |url=http://www.ukwhoswho.com/view/article/oupww/whowaswho/U175671 |title=STEWART, John Anthony Benedict |work=Who Was Who |publisher=A & C Black |accessdate=2008-10-11]
*1986 to 1989: James Allan CMG LVO MBE
*1989 to 1992: Maeve Geraldine Fort CMG, later Dame Maeve Fort DCVO DCMG
*1992 to 1995: Richard John Smale Edis
