Peru first recognized South Vietnam during the era of a divided Vietnam. This recognition continued even after the establishment of Juan Velasco Alvarado's left-leaning Revolutionary Government.[1] After the country's collapse and succession by a puppet government and eventually its northern counterpart, Peru only reestablished relations with the new Vietnamese state in 1994.[2][3]
A Peruvian embassy was opened in Hanoi in 2015.[4] The resident ambassador is accredited to neighbouring Laos.
