The Embassy of Suriname in The Hague is located at 2 Alexander Gogelweg.
The diplomatic post became effective upon Suriname's independence on 25 November 1975. This was achieved by converting the Surinamese cabinet in The Hague into an embassy.[1] The day after, during an official ceremony, the Surinamese flag was raised at the front of the building.[2]
In addition to the embassy, Suriname has consulates-general in Amsterdam and Willemstad, Curaçao, and honorary consulates in Breda and Nijkerk.[3]
The Suriname-Netherlands Chamber of Commerce is located in the embassy, making it possible to establish a business in Suriname while in the Netherlands.[4]
