An ambassador is a diplomatic officer who represents a political body. Ambassadors may be assigned as long-term liasions to foreign governments, or as at-large "troubleshooters" carrying out specific diplomatic missions.

In both canon and non-canon Star Trek, some apparent members of the Federation Council have been addressed as "ambassador" rather than "councillor", most notably Sarek in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. It is unclear whether "ambassador" is a correct form of address for members of the council, or if this honorific is reserved for members with prior diplomatic experience.
