As Antigua and Barbuda’s diplomatic representation in the UK, the High Commission of Antigua and Barbuda in London handles political, economic and consular relations. As both countries are members of the Commonwealth, the mission is called a High Commission and is headed by a High Commissioner rather than an ambassador.
