The EU and Peru began diplomatic relations in 1993, within the context of regional contacts with the countries of the Andean Community (Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru). Political dialogue is based on the Rome Declaration pdf - 19 KB [19 KB] signed in 1996. This political dialogue will be strengthened and institutionalized through the Political Dialogue and Cooperation Agreement between the EU and the Andean Community of 2003, once it is ratified. Dialogue also takes place within the framework of the institutional relations between the European Union and the Rio Group.

Peru is a beneficiary of the EU's Generalized System of Preferences (GSP+). In February 2010 negotiations of a Multi-Party Trade Agreement with Peru (and Colombia) were concluded.
