the use of "career" The word carreira applies to the "reparticao" I believe there is a distinction, not revealed in the section quoted from the Vienna Convention. There are persons who are designated as "honorary consuls" and if they have established a reparticao, then it would not be a "carreer" post .

By the way, based on the Vienna Convention reparticao should be translate as "post.' Although within an Embassy people refer to the "consular section." But only within an Embassy.
