Consulates-General in Jerusalem

The countries which operate these consulates do not regard them as diplomatic missions to Israel or Palestinian Authority, but as diplomatic missions to Jerusalem. The heads of these missions do not submit letters of credence to the Israeli president, PLO Chairman, PNA president, nor to any other head of state.

Some of the countries with consulates-general in Jerusalem include the contacts with the Palestinian National Authority and Palestine Liberation Organization in the consulate-general responsibilities. Most of the countries with consulates-general in Jerusalem have separate embassies in Tel Aviv that are accredited to Israel.
