STATE RIN: 1400-AF85 Publication ID: Spring 2024 
Title: ●Diplomatic-Agent Level Immunity 
Abstract:

The Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations (VCDR) defines diplomatic agent and the level of immunity enjoyed by a diplomatic agent. However, because some other individuals who are not themselves diplomatic agents as defined in the VCDR also enjoy what is known as diplomatic agent-level immunity, the Department of State is proposing to create a regulation that would clearly and correctly define who enjoys diplomatic agent-level immunity and clarifies that the determination, which is both legal and factual in nature, is made by the Department of State.
