AUSMAN Fourth District CHIEF OF PROTOCOL MICHAEL D. ANTONOVICH Fifth District LOURDES SAAB DEPUTY CHIEF OF PROTOCOL Los Angeles Consular Corps SACHIA. HAMAI July 2, 2015 Interim Chief Executive Officer Whenever more than one consul is posted to a location there is a body known as a consular corps. It is a body sul generis (without legal standing) to act collectively. Each government must act for itself. For convenience, most consular corps organize themselves to exchange information and meet with local leaders. The senior consul (by rank and/or longevity) is called a dean and usually represents the corps for protocol purposes. Currently, the Dean is The Honorable Zerihun Refla Shumye, Consul General of Ethiopia. The Los Angeles Consular Corps consists of 101 consulates (66 career and 35 honorary). Career consular officers are appointed by their Head of State or Foreign Minister and are full-time servants of their government. Honorary consular officers are United States citizens and need not possess the nationality of the country they serve. They are generally assigned to provide a degree of consular representation in places not covered by career consular officers. All career and honorary consular officials are accredited by the U.S Department of State and are accorded the courtesy title of ‘The Honorable.” AFGHANISTAN (Career) ARMENIA (Career) (U. S.
