diplomatic bag; diplomatic pouch
Official sealed container used for diplomatic correspondence; protected by international law.
Diplomatic bags are exempt from customs inspection.
Standard kanji spelling for 'diplomatic bag'.
Kana-mixed spelling; 嚢 is a non-jōyō kanji, so this form is sometimes used for readability.
Compound of 外交 (diplomacy) and 行嚢 (traveling bag/pouch). The exact historical derivation is uncertain; the term is a modern translation equivalent.
