Korps diplomatik

Korps diplomatik (Prancis: corps diplomatique) adalah badan kolektif diplomat asing yang diakreditasi ke suatu negara atau badan tertentu.

Korps diplomatik dapat, dalam konteks tertentu, mengacu pada kumpulan kepala misi yang terakreditasi (duta besar, komisaris tinggi, nunsius, dan lainnya) yang mewakili negara mereka di negara bagian atau negara lain. Sebagai badan, mereka biasanya hanya berkumpul untuk menghadiri acara kenegaraan seperti penobatan, pelantikan, hari nasional atau Pembukaan Parlemen, tergantung adat setempat. Mereka juga dapat berkumpul di istana kerajaan atau presiden untuk memberikan ucapan Tahun Baru kepada kepala negara mereka sendiri kepada kepala negara tempat mereka tinggal.

Di banyak negara yang menganut Katolik Roma sebagai agama resmi atau dominan, duta rasul (wakil diplomatik Takhta Suci) berfungsi sebagai sesepuh berdasarkan jabatannya, terlepas dari senioritasnya.^[1]

Quote: "The right to precedence of all permanent papal representatives regardless of their title, from 1815-1849 was generally acknowledged and admitted without contestation by the governments of all the European States and of South America, and without any objection being raised by the diplomats accredited to these States, not even on the part of the British envoys. Such, for example, was the case of the internuncios Mgr Francesco Capaccini in Holland (1829-1831), Mgr Pasquale Gizzi (1835-1837) and Mgr Raffaele Fornari (1838-1841) in Belgium, Mgr Antonio Garibaldi in France (1836-1843) and all the papal diplomatic representatives with the title of apostolic delegate and envoy extraordinary in the various South American republics."
