While contacts were established between French and Mongol rulers in the 13th century, relations between the modern nations only became official on 27 April 1965,[3] only gaining momentum in the 1990s as a result of Mongolia's democratic revolution.
Franco-Mongol relations are part of a more general framework of partnership with the European Union, which is now Mongolia's third largest trade partnership. A European Union-Mongolia Partnership and Cooperation Agreement was launched in 2017.[4]
Significant high-level visits include Mongolian President Punsalmaagiin Ochirbat's visit to France in 1996 and French President Emmanuel Macron's visit in 2023.[5] During the visit of President of Mongolia Ukhnaagiin Khurelsukh in October 2023, the two countries agreed to develop uranium mining in southern Mongolia.[6] French Orano plans to invest $1.7 billion dollars[7] in Mongolia.
There is a French embassy in Ulaanbaatar, and a Mongolian embassy in Paris.
