List of diplomatic missions of Afghanistan

The operation of Afghanistan's foreign diplomatic missions has been in a transitional phase since the Taliban's August 2021 takeover of the government by force. The takeover was widely condemned by the international community, and no country has recognized the Taliban government, officially called the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. Despite not recognizing the new regime, some countries have handed over control of the Afghan diplomatic missions in their countries by allowing the Taliban to appoint representatives at the chargé d'affaires level. In December 2023, China became the first country to accredit a Taliban-appointed ambassador.

Most embassies set up by the former internationally-recognized regime, the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, have continued to operate independently since the 2021 collapse of their government. In the absence of a government-in-exile, some have been coordinating policy with each other directly. The Taliban has been aggressively pursuing control of these missions through both diplomatic efforts and harassment campaigns targeted at currently serving diplomats with the aim of them stepping aside. They have had limited success. Initially, the Taliban continued accepting documents issued by any mission, though this policy was revoked in 2024.
