This is a list of diplomatic missions of India. India has a large diplomatic network, reflecting its links in the world and particularly in neighbouring regions: Central Asia, the Middle East, East Africa, Southeast Asia, and the rest of the Indian subcontinent. There are also far-flung missions in the Caribbean and the Pacific, locations of historical Indian diaspora communities.
As a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, Indian diplomatic missions in the capitals of other Commonwealth members are known as High Commissions. In other cities of Commonwealth countries, India calls some of its consular missions "Assistant High Commissions", although those in the cities of Birmingham[1] and Edinburgh[2] in the United Kingdom and the city of Hambantota in Sri Lanka are known as "Consulates-General".[3]
As of January 2021, India has 196 missions and posts operating globally and 13 new missions are to be opened in 2020-21 in Cape Verde, Chad, Dominican Republic, Estonia, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Mauritania, Paraguay, Republic of the Congo, Sao Tome and Principe, Sierra Leone, Somalia, and Togo.[4][5][6]
