The Apostolic Nunciature to Republic of Bolivia is an ecclesiastical office of the Catholic Church in Bolivia, with the rank of an embassy. The nuncio serves both as the ambassador of the Holy See to the President of Bolivia, and as delegate and point-of-contact between the Catholic hierarchy in Bolivia and the Pope.

History

Papal representation was established in Bolivia by the Apostolic Delegation to Peru and Bolivia, a single office resident in Peru. As a delegation, it had no diplomatic status but acted on behalf of the Holy See with respect to the Catholic Church in region. This was then divided to create a nunciature for each country, a diplomatic office. Archbishop Angelo Giacinto Scapardini was named Apostolic Delegate to Peru and Bolivia in 1910. When he was assigned to his next diplomatic post in December 1916, he was described as Internuncio to Peru and Bolivia. [1] Apostolic internuncio is a title given in anticipation of the establishment of diplomatic relations and the exchange of ambassadors.
