Question

What is the purpose of an embassy? So if I travel to another country there will be an USA embassy?

Answer 1

An embassy is an office established by one country in another country with the latter's permission. Its purpose is generally to represent its country in, and maintain friendly relations with, the host country.  The embassy also primarily helps protect the rights of the nationals of its country who are traveling or residing within the host country.  So if you travel to a foreign country that is friendly to the United States, chances are that the U.S. has an embassy in that country.

Answer 2

There are a few countries which do no have diplomatic ties with the US, like Iran and Cuba.  If you travel there, you will not have access to the US embassy.  

Embassies are designed to increase communication between countries by having official representatives of foreign governments on hand to consult or negotiate with the host government.  Embassies also assist travelers from their home country., and provide visa and other consular services for people seeking to travel abroad.

The purpose is mainly "Information" or requirements needed for visa's and working permits.....but they are great too for "everyday" question an answers.....
