At present, only the Iraqi and United States embassies to Italy and the <a href="/wiki/Holy_See" title="Holy See">Holy See</a> share premises; however, separate ambassadors are appointed, one to each country. In the case of the <a href="/wiki/Food_and_Agriculture_Organization_of_the_United_Nations" class="mw-redirect" title="Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations">UN's Food Agencies</a>, the sending country's ambassador to the Italian Republic is usually accredited as <a href="/wiki/Permanent_representative" title="Permanent representative">permanent representative</a>. The United States maintains a separate <a href="/wiki/United_States_Mission_to_the_UN_Agencies_in_Rome" title="United States Mission to the UN Agencies in Rome">mission to the UN agencies</a>, led by <a href="/wiki/United_States_Ambassador_to_the_United_Nations_Agencies_for_Food_and_Agriculture" class="mw-redirect" title="United States Ambassador to the United Nations Agencies for Food and Agriculture">its own ambassador</a>, but is located in the compound that houses its embassies to Italy and the Holy See. </p><p>Several cities host both embassies/consulates and permanent representatives to international organizations, such as <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a> (<a href="/wiki/United_Nations" title="United Nations">United Nations</a>), <a href="/wiki/Washington,_D.C." title="Washington, D.C.">Washington, D.C.</a> (<a href="/wiki/Organization_of_American_States" title="Organization of American States">Organization of American States</a>), <a href="/wiki/Jakarta" title="Jakarta">Jakarta</a> (<a href="/wiki/ASEAN" title="ASEAN">ASEAN</a>) and <a href="/wiki/Brussels" title="Brussels">Brussels</a> (<a href="/wiki/European_Union" title="European Union">European Union</a> and <a href="/wiki/NATO" title="NATO">North Atlantic Treaty Organization</a>). </p><p>In some cases, an embassy or consulate is divided between multiple locations in the same city. For example, the Bangladeshi Deputy High Commission in <a href="/wiki/Kolkata" title="Kolkata">Kolkata</a>, has two locations: one at <a href="/wiki/Park_Circus" title="Park Circus">Park Circus</a> and another, opened later, at Mirza Ghalib Street, to reduce overcrowding. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Non-diplomatic_offices">Non-diplomatic offices</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Diplomatic_mission&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Non-diplomatic offices"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/De_facto_embassy" title="De facto embassy">De facto embassy</a></div> <p>Governments of <a href="/wiki/List_of_states_with_limited_recognition" title="List of states with limited recognition">states not recognized by the receiving state</a> and of territories that make no claim to be sovereign states may set up offices abroad that do not have official diplomatic status as defined by the Vienna Convention.
