The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (La Ministrà dels Afaes Utpätseschti) sees to diplomatic relations between the Kingdom and the other nations of the world. The ministry establishes and maintains all embassies, consulates, and other missions to foreign states, and provides each with properly accredited diplomatic or consular staff (including ambassadors-general, ambassadors, consuls-general, consuls, attachés, spies, and other officers) and administrative and technical staff.

The Ministry has structured its embassies through establishment of the posts of Ambassadors-General to each continent, who are empowered to appoint ambassadors to individual nations, should the Ambassador-General require. Currently, the posts of Ambassadors-General are vacant.

The Foreign Ministry also establishes Consulates throughout the world, appointing a single Consul-General and any number of Consuls, which serve at the consulates. To qualify as a consulate, an establishment must trade in the national currency (beer), exchanging it on a regular basis for foreign currency. Bars, public houses, and liquor stores around the world may achieve official recognition as Talossan consulates through application to the Foreign Ministry.

The Consulate served by the Talossan Consul-General determines the standard bullion of Talossan currency and its base exchange rate. At present, the Consul-General is Baron Fritz von Buchholtz, owner-operator of Mr. Fritz's, and the standard bullion is Miller Genuine Draft. (Values of other bullions are determined from this base by assessments performed by the Royal Treasury Reserve Board within the Royal Bank & Post.)
