List of diplomatic missions of Tuvalu

Diplomatic missions of Tuvalu

This is a list of diplomatic missions of Tuvalu. Tuvalu has a population of 12,100, making it the second least populated independent country in the world, ahead of the Vatican (900). It consequently cannot support anything but the barest diplomatic network.

Tuvalu has only five diplomatic missions abroad: a High Commission in Suva, Fiji, (opened in 1976), its office at the United Nations (opened in 2001), an embassy in Brussels, Belgium, home city of the European Union headquarters (opened in 2008), an embassy in the Republic of China (opened in March 2013) and a High Commission in Wellington, New Zealand (opened in February 2015).[1][2]
