Guyana Embassy in Washington DC

The Embassy of the Co-operative Republic of Guyana in Washington DC is Guyana's principal diplomatic mission in the United States. The US-Guyana relationship has strengthened significantly since major offshore oil discoveries by ExxonMobil in the Stabroek Block, making Guyana one of the fastest-growing economies in the world. The embassy handles bilateral relations, trade facilitation, and consular services for the large Guyanese-American community — estimated at over 250,000 people, concentrated in New York's Queens borough, New Jersey, and Florida. The US is Guyana's largest trading partner and a key security cooperation partner in the Caribbean Basin.
