This section lets the government extend subchapter privileges to the African Union, and keep extending them to the International Labor Organization and the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, the same way it can for other international organizations the U.S. participates in. The President can also separately give the African Union's mission in the U.S., and its members, the same privileges and immunities as accredited foreign diplomatic missions.

(a) Extension to certain organizations. The privileges, exemptions, and immunities under this subchapter may be extended to the African Union, and may keep being extended to the International Labor Organization and the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, in the same manner, to the same extent, and under the same conditions as they may be extended to a public international organization the United States participates in under a treaty or an Act of Congress authorizing or funding that participation. (b) African Union Mission. Under terms and conditions the President decides, consistent with this subchapter's purposes, the President may extend, or agree to extend, to the African Union Mission to the United States of America, and to its members, the same privileges and immunities enjoyed by accredited diplomatic missions and their members, along with the matching conditions and obligations that come with that status.
