Besides the embassy, Poland has six honorary consulates: in Peru (Arequipa and Callao), in Bolivia (La Paz and Santa Cruz) and in Ecuador (Quito and Guayaquil). [2]

History

Poland maintained diplomatic relations with Peru before World War II. From 1923, an honorary consulate operated in Trujillo and then in Lima. The first honorary consul was Stanislaw Madejewski. After establishing diplomatic relations in Peru, the Polish envoys in Buenos Aires were accredited. Peru withdrew its recognition of the Polish government in July 1945. [1]

Consular relations were restored on August 22, 1967. The Consulate General of the Republic of Poland was opened in Lima on April 14, 1969, becoming an embassy on August 1 of the same year. Initially, the ambassador in Caracas was accredited to Peru. Polish ambassadors have been residing in Peru since 1973. [1]

In December 1996, Polish chargé d'affaires Wojciech Tomaszewski found himself among the hostages of the radical left-wing terrorist guerrilla Túpac Amaru Revolutionary Movement (MRTA) at the Japanese ambassador's residence in Lima. [1]
