The embassy was opened on 20 February 1962, following the country's independence in 1961. The current building was designed by Kenzo Tange and completed in 1970.[1][2] It is noted for being one of the few works by Tange in Japan built in the 1970s, as most of his works during this decade were built outside Japan. The contractor was Kajima.[3]
