The Embassy of Pakistan in Washington, D.C. is the diplomatic mission of Islamic Republic of Pakistan to the United States. It is located at 3517 International Court, Northwest, Washington, D.C., in the Cleveland Park neighborhood.[1]

The embassy also operates Consulates-General in Boston, Houston, Los Angeles, and New York City.

H.E. Jalil Abbas Jilani is the current Ambassador of Pakistan to the United States.[2]

The architecture of the embassy building is partly modelled on the Naulakha Pavilion. The Interests Section of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the United States is a part of the Pakistani embassy in Washington, D.C.

From 1951 to 2011, the embassy was located on Embassy Row, in the former Francis B. Moran House (arch. George Oakley Totten, Jr., 1909) on 2315 Massachusetts Avenue NW. A chancery annex was located on 2201 R Street NW in the former house of Gardner F. Williams, built in 1906 and also designed by George Oakley Totten, Jr. [3]
