It is located on Dr Luís Agote street in the Recoleta neighbourhood. The current British Ambassador to Argentina is Kirsty Hayes.
There were previously British Consulates in the cities of Rosario, La Plata, Bahia Blanca, Santa Fe and Mendoza.
Due to the turbulent nature of Argentina–United Kingdom relations, the Embassy has frequently been the site of protests against the actions of the UK government, particularly over the Falkland Islands, over which Argentina claims sovereignty.
