The Commercial Office of Peru to Taipei (Spanish: Oficina Comercial del Perú en Taipei, Chinese: 秘魯駐台北商務辦事處; pinyin: Bìlǔ zhù táiběi shāngwù bànshì chù) represents interests of Peru in Taiwan in the absence of formal diplomatic relations, functioning as a de facto embassy. Its counterpart in Peru is the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Peru in Lima.[2]

The current Commercial Economic Counselor of the Commercial Office is Juan Luis Kuyeng Ruiz.[3][4]

History

Peru maintained a diplomatic mission in Beijing since the establishment of relations in 1874,[5][6] while China's legation arrived in Lima only after the War of the Pacific.[7][8] In 1944, the diplomatic status of the two countries was raised to embassy level, and high-level officials of the two countries exchanged frequent visits in the 1950s and 1960s.[1] As a result of the Chinese Civil War, Peru closed its embassy in Beijing in 1946 due to its refusal to recognize the newly established People's Republic of China.[9]

In 1971, the left-wing government of Juan Velasco Alvarado recognized the People's Republic of China and established diplomatic relations, leading the Republic of China to sever its relations with Peru.[10] As such, the Peruvian embassy in Taipei closed on November 3, 1971,[1] with Peru having opened a commercial office in Beijing some time prior.[11]

After a 20-year period without an official representation, Peru opened its representative office in Taipei on March 3, 1994,[1] located in the 16th floor of the TWTC International Trade Building. As of October 2022, Peru is the 5th largest commercial partner of Taiwan in Latin America.[12]
