The British Embassy Rome develops and maintains the strong relations between the United Kingdom and Italy; partners in many international organisations such as the EU, G7, G20 and NATO. They cooperate on a wide range of issues including the economy, in particular measures that generate wealth in both our countries, commercial regulation in the single market, energy policy and international security. The Embassy works to improve the relations between scientists and researchers working on innovative projects in Italy and the UK. They have a team dedicated to sharing our armed forces’ expertise and to developing stronger ties and opening up the military sector to UK commercial contacts.

There are also trade offices in Rome and Milan. The consular network is based in Rome and Milan and is supported by a network of honorary consuls in major Italian cities. They also offer consular assistance to British nationals in San Marino. Services for British nationals
