Ambassador of Hungary to the Republic of Peru
Incumbent
András Beck
since July 13, 2023
Inaugural holderWilhelm Brauns
Formation1864

The Hungarian ambassador in Lima is the official representative of the Government in Budapest to the Government of Peru.

Both countries established relations in the 19th century. In 1851, Austria–Hungary recognized the independence of Peru, and both countries subsequently established relations.[1] As a result of World War I, Peru severed relations with both Germany and Austria–Hungary in 1917, reestablishing them in 1920.[2]

After the 1968 Peruvian coup d'état and the establishment of Juan Velasco Alvarado's Revolutionary Government, relations were renewed in April 1969[3] with the Hungarian People's Republic as the new Peruvian government pursued closer relations with the Soviet bloc.[4]

The Peruvian embassy in Budapest closed in January 2007 and reopened in 2017.[5][6][7] Today, ethnic Hungarians in Latin America reside in Argentina and Peru for the most part.[8]
