British Embassy Vienna

The British Embassy in Vienna is part of the Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO), which has diplomatic missions in capital cities throughout the world. In Commonwealth countries these are known as high commissions and in other countries embassies. In some countries there are also consulates, which are smaller and based in major cities besides the capital. The Foreign Office also runs missions to international organisations, including the United Nations and the European Union.
The British Embassy in Vienna represents the British government in Austria. Its role is to liaise with the Austrian government and institutions on behalf of UK ministries and official institutions and to deliver the UK’s priorities in Austria. The head of the Embassy is the Ambassador, who is Her Majesty The Queen’s representative and as such the United Kingdom's official representative in Austria
