The Republic of India has one of the largest diplomatic networks, reflecting its links in the world and particularly in neighbouring regions: Central Asia, the Middle East, East Africa, Europe, Southeast Asia, and the rest of the Indian subcontinent. There are also far-flung missions in the Caribbean and the Pacific, locations of historical Indian diaspora communities.

As a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, Indian diplomatic missions in the capitals of other Commonwealth members are known as High Commissions. In other cities of Commonwealth countries, the consular missions are known as "Consulates-General", [1] except those in Bangladesh, which are known as "Assistant High Commission(s)".
As of May 2025, India has 214 resident missions operating in various countries worldwide, not including honorary missions. The latest Indian mission to become operational is the Consulate General in Manchester, United Kingdom, which was inaugurated by External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar on 8 March 2025. [2]
