Diplomatic missions are exempt everywhere on a reciprocal basis. However, NYC is claiming taxes on what it claims are residential properties occupied by embassy staff...legal hairsplitting...India and Mongolia will now impose taxes reciprocally on US embassy staff housing I assume(till now exempt).

harsh, read it again carefully. they are NOT embassy staff. They were on UN mission. to know the difference, pls read one of my comments above this comment.
