This is a list of diplomatic missions of Angola.
Republic of Angola
Countries that host Angolan embassies
Countries that host only Angolan consular missions
Most of Angola's diplomatic and consular missions are concentrated in neighboring countries of Central and Southern Africa, as well as in European countries that host considerable diaspora communities. As a former possession of the Portuguese Empire for nearly 400 years - first as a colony, then as an overseas province, and finally as a federated state prior to independence in 1975 - Angola has resident missions in all member-states of the Community of Portuguese Language Countries. As such, it is one of the few countries to maintain resident missions in Timor-Leste and Macau.
This listing does not include honorary consulates or trade offices.

History
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Angola (MIREX) expanded in 2016 the Angolan consular network by opening consulates-general in Guangzhou, China and Mongu, Zambia.[1][2]
In October 2018, MIREX closed a number of diplomatic missions, citing budget cuts as the reason. These included the embassies in Athens, Mexico City, and Ottawa; the permanent mission to the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP) in Lisbon; and consulates-general in Los Angeles, Durban, Faro, Frankfurt, and Hong Kong.[3][4] Despite these closures, MIREX slowly expanded the Angolan diplomatic network by opening embassies in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in 2021;[5] in Dakar, Senegal; in 2022;[6] and in Doha, Qatar, in 2023.[7] Consulates-general were also opened in Istanbul, Turkey, and in Toronto, Canada, in 2023.[8][9]
In July 2024, MIREX announced the opening of four embassies, in Canberra, Australia; Dili, Timor-Leste; Jakarta, Indonesia; and Oslo, Norway. On the other hand, MIREX announced the closure of the embassy in Singapore, and the transfer of its ambassador to the embassy in Manila, Philippines, which had heretofore been led by a chargé d'affaires.[10][11]
