The US Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938 defines an agent of a Foreign principal as any individual or organization which acts at the order, request, or under the direction or control of a foreign principal, or whose activities are directed by a foreign principal who: 1. engages in political activities, or 2. acts in a public relations capacity for a foreign principal, or 3. solicits or dispenses any thing of value within the United States for a foreign principal, or 4. who represents the interests of a foreign principal before any agency or official of the U.S. government.

Diplomats and officials of foreign governments, and their staffs, are exempt only if properly recognized by the U.S. State Department.

Also, 18 U.S.C. § 951 provides criminal penalties for anyone other than a diplomat to operate as an agent of a foreign government without first notifying the Attorney General.
