The United States Ambassador to China is the chief American diplomat to People's Republic of China (PRC). The United States has sent diplomatic representatives to China since 1844, when Caleb Cushing, as commissioner, negotiated the Treaty of Wanghia. Commissioners represented the United States in China from 1844 to 1857. Until 1898, China did not have a system in place for the Emperor to accept the Letters of Credence of foreign representatives. From 1858 to 1935, the U.S. representative in China was formally Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to China. The American legation in Nanjing was upgraded to an embassy in 1935 and the Envoy was promoted to Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary.

  • The United States Ambassador to China is the chief American diplomat to People's Republic of China (PRC). The United States has sent diplomatic representatives to China since 1844, when Caleb Cushing, as commissioner, negotiated the Treaty of Wanghia. Commissioners represented the United States in China from 1844 to 1857. Until 1898, China did not have a system in place for the Emperor to accept the Letters of Credence of foreign representatives. From 1858 to 1935, the U.S. representative in China was formally Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to China. The American legation in Nanjing was upgraded to an embassy in 1935 and the Envoy was promoted to Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary. During the republican era, the U.S. recognized the Beiyang Government in Beijing from 1912 to 1928 and the Nationalist Government in Nanjing (and Chongqing from 1937 to 1945) from 1928 onwards. After the Communist People's Republic of China was established in mainland China in 1949 and the Kuomintang moved the Republic of China government from Nanjing to Taipei, Taiwan, the U.S. continued to recognize the Republic of China as the legitimate Chinese government and maintained its embassy in Taiwan. However, in 1973, the U.S. established a Liaison Office in Beijing to represent its interests in mainland China. In 1976, the Chief of the Liaison Office was promoted to the rank of ambassador. In December 1978, the U.S. severed official relations with the Republic of China and in January 1979, established formal relations with the People's Republic of China. The U.S. Liaison Office in Beijing was upgraded to an embassy on March 1, 1979. The American Institute in Taiwan was established in 1979 to serve as the unofficial U.S. representative to Taiwan, with the director of its Taipei Office taking the role of a de facto ambassador.

  • 美國駐華大使列表，指美国派駐在中国（大清国、中華民國、中華人民共和國）的外交代表列表。美國對華派出外交使節始于清朝的19世纪。1843年美國向大清派出顧盛為專使（Commissioner），負責談判望廈條約。由1844年至1857年，美國向中國派出的最高使節皆為專使。1858年起之使節為特命全權公使，至1935年改制為特命全權大使。 1912年，清廷覆亡，中国数千年的帝王專制统治结束，中华民国成立，成为中國史上第一个共和国。中美關係於溥儀2月宣佈遜位後暫時中斷。1913年中，美方承認中華民國並再派出公使。1913年至1928年，美國承認的中華民國政府為北京之北洋政府。1928年國民政府北伐後，美國首先於6月予以承認，公使留驻北平。1935年5月17日，中美兩國使節升格為大使。1937年起，美國大使館隨國民政府先後遷往武漢和重慶，至1946年遷至南京。 1949年，中华民国中央政府在中國國民黨主導下由中国大陆迁往台北，中国共产党等民主党派在北京宣布成立中华人民共和国；美國駐華大使於1949年8月離開南京，1950年底前所有美國外交人員均已離開中華人民共和國境內。1953年前，美僅對華派出临时代办，未派大使，至1953年才再度向中华民国派出大使，駐在台北由原總領事館升格而成的大使館。1971年，聯合國2758號決議使得中華人民共和國取代中華民國在聯合國的「中國代表權」。美國自1972年起與北京關係走向正常化，駐華大使仍駐台北；但同時向北京派出聯絡處主任，地位與駐華大使相同。中華人民共和國與美國於1979年1月1日正式建交。美国驻华大使馆現设于北京市安家楼路55号；原先在台業務則改由美國在台協會台北辦事處負責辦理。 (zh)
