History

Both states were formerly part of the Spanish Empire and formally established relations in 1857, during the Filibuster War.[1][2]

Both countries became briefly involved in an international incident when Guatemalan ambassador José María Argueta was among the hostages of the Japanese embassy hostage crisis.

In 2017, heads of state Pedro Pablo Kuczynski and Jimmy Morales met in Paris with Luis Alberto Moreno, president of the Inter-American Development Bank.[3][4]

In economic matters, Guatemala and Peru have a free trade agreement signed on December 6, 2011.[5]
