Permanent Mission of Germany to the United Nations

Diplomacy lives on First Avenue. The Permanent Mission of Germany to the United Nations sits at 871 United Nations Plaza, New York, NY 10017, a short walk from the glass tower of the UN Secretariat. It handles everything from Security Council briefings to cultural outreach, and the flags outside mark the building as sovereign territory—no visa required to call. For consular services or official inquiries, the number is (212) 940-0400.

Midtown East feels quieter here, with fewer tourists and more black sedans. The mission’s work spans climate negotiations, human rights resolutions, and bilateral trade talks, all within the same limestone façade. When you need directions, the map is here. The plaza itself is a rare pocket of calm between the FDR and the East River.
