Trade Agreements
Peru maintains an active policy of trade integration with the world since, as part of its long-term trade strategy, it seeks to consolidate markets for Peruvian products in order to develop a competitive export supply that, in turn, generates more and better jobs. In this sense, through various integration schemes, access to important expanded markets has been achieved, to which investors who establish themselves in the country will be able to gain access.
Most of the trade agreements executed by Peru include, in addition to access to new markets, other regulatory aspects related to trade, including investment, the purpose of which is to guarantee a stable and predictable investment climate.
It is important to note that Peru is a founding member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and a full member of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), the latter comprising 21 economies. At the Latin American level, Peru is a member of the Andean Community of Nations (Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru) and, within the framework of the Latin American Integration Association (ALADI), Peru has executed an Economic Complementation Agreement with MERCOSUR. Below there is a map of the agreements executed with Peru. For more information, please visit the official website.
