Who we are
The European Commission Delegation was established in Dushanbe in 2003 and officially accredited as a diplomatic representation in May 2004. It operated as a Regionalised Delegation under the Head of Delegation based in Kazakhstan, with a residing Chargé d'affaires.
As of 1 December 2009, with the Lisbon Treaty entering into force, the Delegation of the European Commission was transformed into the Delegation of the European Union, culminating with the arrival of a new resident Head of Delegation in January 2010.
