Both countries officially established relations in 1923. Although originally of a stable nature, the invasion of Poland and the outbreak of World War II led to the withdrawal and reestablishment of Peruvian recognition of different entities representing a Polish government until 1967, when Peru officially reestablished relations, now with the Polish People's Republic.[4][5]

Peruvian president Alan García visited Poland some time before the 1990 Polish presidential election, in September 1989. Since the socialist government's collapse, both nations have continued their relations, with both countries signing treaties and with more government visits between both states taking place.[6]
