Under Article 30, a diplomat’s home enjoys the same protection as the embassy itself, preventing local authorities from searching or seizing their private property.International law clarifies that the "inviolability" of an embassy is not a right of the individual diplomat, but a right of the state they represent. Therefore, the host government’s duty is to the foreign nation as a whole, acknowledging that any breach is a violation of state-to-state agreements.This framework also protects the archives and documents of the mission at all times and wherever they may be.
