The Gladysynthian-Zamastanian Embassy is Gladysynthia's diplomatic headquarters for Zamastan, located in Embassy Row in Tofino. It is a ten-story building in the Hapson Gardens district of Embassy Row, and the headquarters contains a residential area for Ambassador Samuel Spyra and his family, office spaces for the building's staff and faculty, meeting areas for diplomats, a garage for the Diplomatic Missions ground vehicles, as well as a small bunker for security and arms storage. Most of the building's Diplomatic Missions staff also stay in the building during their tours, with 2 floors dedicated to their living requirements. The are 15 security personnel, 152 staff and faculty members, and 10 janitors. It is located directly next to the United New England Embassy.
In addition to its diplomatic role, the Embassy handles consular services and assists with international business development for Gladysynthian businesses operating in Zamastan. The current ambassador from Zamastan to Gladysynthia is John Ellaiss.
The embassy's first building was originally located in Old Town, though because of numerous military conflicts (1945 Danaska Conflict and The Tariel War), it went through many periods of being closed and abandoned. In 2014, the diplomatic mission requested for a new campus, and the Zamastanian government approved the move to Hapson Gardens. Once again, military conflict (the Gladysynthia Crisis) caused the closure of the building for nearly three months from August 4th through November 19th, 2018. The building was reopened following the signing of the Treaty of Mönusÿnthys 2018-9B.
On January 5th, 2019, a shooting occurred at the embassy, killing 6 people and injuring several more, including the ambassador to Zamastan.
