In accordance with Article 87 of the Constitution of the Italian Republic, the president of the republic is responsible for the reception and accreditation of foreign ambassadors. Therefore, the Spanish ambassadors in Italy must be accredited to the president once they arrive in the Cisalpine country. During the monarchy this attribution corresponded to the King of Italy, according to the Statuto Albertino of 1848.
However, as it is a semi-presidential republic, the Italian government is responsible for directing foreign policy and the relationship with the ambassadors accredited to Italy.
