Bilateral relations U.S. - Liechtenstein

The Embassy of Liechtenstein in Washington, DC opened in October 2002 to deepen the decades-long friendly relationship with the United States and to expand cooperation in areas important to both countries. Liechtenstein and the US share a dynamic partnership that extends beyond Washington, DC to the fifty states and encompasses political, economic, cultural, and academic agendas. Dr. Georg Sparber has been Liechtenstein's Ambassador to the United States and Permanent Observer of Liechtenstein to the Organization of American States since 2021.

The Embassy in Washington promotes Liechtenstein's foreign policy and economic interests in the US and raises awareness in the US of the concerns of Liechtenstein's economic players in particular. The US is an important economic partner for Liechtenstein, both in terms of trade and investment. Liechtenstein’s companies operate successfully in the US and produce crucial goods for US supply chains. In addition, there is close and successful cooperation between the two countries in the fight against financial crime, terrorist financing, money laundering, and tax fraud.

Liechtenstein and the US share a commitment to an international order based on the United Nations Charter, and the principles of the rule of law, democracy, human rights, and free societies. Both countries have long worked together to combat threats to these principles.

The Embassy is supported in its work by five Honorary Consulates covering the following regions: South and Southeast U.S., Midwest U.S., New England, West and Southwest U.S., and South and Central America.
