• Source: List of ambassadors of the United Kingdom to Syria

      • The Ambassador of the United Kingdom to Syria was the United Kingdom's foremost diplomatic representative to Syria, and head of the UK's diplomatic mission in Damascus. The official title was His Britannic Majesty's Ambassador to the Syrian Arab Republic.
      In February 2012 all diplomatic staff were withdrawn from the British Embassy in Damascus and its services were suspended. There is now no ambassador. The UK appoints a "Special Envoy to Syria"; the present incumbent is the head of the Near East Department at the Foreign & Commonwealth Office in London.
