Summary/Abstract: A properly functioning institution of diplomatic bag is the sine qua non of effective operation of diplomatic missions. There is no legal definition of diplomatic bag in international law however, this problem was repeatedly raised by representatives of the doctrine and by the International Law Commission. In communicating with the Government and the other missions and consulates of the sending State the mission may employ all appropriate means, including diplomatic couriers also as courier ad hoc or so – called captain’s mail.
