Commitments to be an Ambassador

- You will have to be able to receive and display Gaplan patriotic items either in your home or office (wherever you plan to provide diplomatic services).
- While the Federated States of Gapla does not discriminate based on age, you will have to be the age of majority in the country you are setting up an embassy in (at least 18 years old for the UK). This is to ensure that you will have access to all services required to run an embassy. However, exceptions in some cases can be made, so please contact us.
