(PNG)Template:Efn is a foreign diplomat that is asked by the host country to be recalled to their home country.

Diplomacy

Under Article 9 of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, a receiving state may "at any time and without having to explain its decision" declare any member of a diplomatic staff Script error: No such module "Lang"..[1] A person so declared is considered unacceptable and is usually recalled to their home nation. If not recalled, the receiving state "may refuse to recognize the person concerned as a member of the mission".[2] A person can be declared Script error: No such module "Lang". before even entering the country.[1]

With the protection of mission staff from prosecution for violating civil and criminal laws, depending on rank, under Articles 41 and 42 of the Vienna Convention, they are bound to respect national laws and regulations. Breaches of these articles can lead to erring staff being declared Script error: No such module "Lang".. The sanction is also used to expel diplomats suspected of espionage, described as "activities incompatible with diplomatic status",[3][4] or criminal acts such as drug trafficking.

The declaration may also be a symbolic indication of displeasure.[5] So-called "tit for tat" exchanges have occurred (whereby countries involved in a dispute each expel diplomats of the other country), notably during the Cold War. A notable occurrence outside of the Cold War was an exchange between the United States and Ecuador in 2011; the Ecuadorian government expelled the United States ambassador in response to the United States diplomatic cables leak, and the United States responded by expelling the Ecuadorian ambassador.[6]Script error: No such module "IPA".

Other usage

Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". People other than diplomats can be declared Script error: No such module "Lang". by a country.[1]

In non-diplomatic usage, referring to someone as Script error: No such module "Lang". is to say that the person is not popular or accepted by others.[7]

In the Philippines, local legislatures of provinces, towns, and cities can declare certain people or groups, including non-diplomats and Filipino citizens, as persona non grata to express a negative sentiment toward the certain person through a non-binding resolution. This could be in response to the person breaking local ordinance or laws.[8] This has also happened in Spain.[9]
