The Portuguese Ambassador to Peru is the official representative of the Portuguese Republic to the Government of Peru.
The Portuguese Embassy is located at 640 Pardo y Aliaga Avenue, Lima.
The current ambassador is Joaquim Alberto de Sousa Moreira de Lemos, who succeeded Afonso Henriques Abreu de Azeredo Malheiro in 2021.[1]
Relations between Peru and what was then the Kingdom of Portugal were established on March 26, 1853[2] and elevated to embassy level in 1938 with the Portuguese Republic,[3] having been maintained since. In contrast, Spain did not recognize Peru until after the Chincha Islands War, when relations were officially established in 1879.[4]
The first representative of Portugal, António José Alves Júnior, arrived in Lima and presented his credentials on November 15, 1945.[2]
