Israel and Peru officially established bilateral relations on January 1, 1958.[3] Prior to the establishment of any formal relations, an honorary consulate was inaugurated at the fourth floor of a building in La Colmena Avenue in late 1953,[4][5] which was replaced by an embassy in Santa Beatriz that operated at the sixth floor of a building there until 2011.[2]
