History

[edit]

Both countries established relations in 1873,[4][5] and 790 Japanese immigrants arrived to Peru 20 years later in 1899.[4] Over time, Peru's Japanese population has become the second largest in Latin America after Brazil.

During the early 20th century, Peru had consulates in Tokyo, Kobe and Osaka.[6] These were closed after Peru severed relations with Japan in January 1942 due to the Attack on Pearl Harbor during World War II.[7] Relations were reestablished after the treaty of San Francisco, and legations between both countries were reopened between 1952 and 1955, being followed in 1956 by an exchange of embassies.[8]

A consulate-general in Nagoya opened in 2008.[9]
