Delegation of North Korea, Paris

The North Korean Delegation in Paris is a diplomatic office located in the 16th arrondissement that serves as the official contact point between Pyongyang and France. The mission handles official relations and communications between the two countries without offering consular services to the public.

The delegation was established in 1984 when France formalized diplomatic relations with North Korea. This step reflected a period when Western nations were expanding engagement with the region during Cold War tensions.

The delegation organizes exhibitions and presentations about North Korean traditions, art forms, and contemporary society to French audiences throughout the year.

The building is not open to regular visitors and any visit requires official diplomatic business or a specific request beforehand. Entry follows standard security procedures that are typical for diplomatic missions in the city.

The delegation functions differently from standard embassies, focusing exclusively on diplomatic relations without providing consular services to foreign citizens.
