What is the difference between diplomats and foreign service officers?

What is the main purpose of each job?


    




Curious1usa
In terms of the United States: Foreign Service Officer is a job category, while the term "diplomat" is more of a concept denoting someone who engages in promoting the interests of the US government, generally within a host country environment. All overseas Foreign Service Officers are issued Diplomatic Passports and visas while overseas, and regardless of job title or department, can be said to serve a diplomatic function. On the other hand, not all diplomats are Foreign Service Officers - they may be political appointees, or Department of State General Service employees on an excursion tour.
