Overall, the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (FDFA) deals appropriately with Swiss honorary consulates abroad. The honorary consulates generally provide added value. The FDFA regards its responsibility towards foreign honorary consulates in Switzerland as very limited and takes a restrained approach in dealings with them.​​
