The Prime Minister's Trade Envoys are a network of appointed parliamentarians, drawn from both Houses and across the political spectrum. Special Envoys are officials of the Government.

Both the Prime Minister's Trade and Special Envoys are based in the UK and travel if needed. They are not allocated residential accommodation, either in the UK or overseas. The Trade Envoys are not provided with offices in the UK. FCDO Special Envoys have access to two shared offices in the FCDO in King Charles Street. They can book these on the occasions they wish to use them.
