The Embassy of Finland in Lima (Finnish: Suomen suurlähetystö, Lima, Spanish; Castilian: Embajada de Finlandia en Lima) is Finland's diplomatic mission in Peru, located in the country's capital, Lima, and also accredited to Bolivia and Ecuador.[1]
Until August 2022, it also housed the Embassy of Sweden in Lima, also accredited to Bolivia from 1940 to 2001.[2]
Besides the embassy, Finland also operates honorary consulates in Lima, Arequipa, Cuzco and Piura.[3]
See main article: Embassy of Sweden, Lima. The Embassy of Sweden, Lima (Swedish: Sveriges ambassad i Lima, Spanish; Castilian: Embajada de Suecia en Lima) was Sweden's diplomatic mission in Peru, being the original occupant of the building that currently houses the Finnish embassy. The final resident ambassador was Maria Cramér.[2]
Diplomatic relations between Peru and Sweden were established in 1930.[4] A palace-like villa built in 1938 was bought by the then National Swedish Board of Public Building (Byggnadsstyrelsen) in 1940 as an ambassador's residence.[5] The embassy was closed in 2001,[5] and the Swedish ambassador in Santiago de Chile became accredited to Lima from 2001 to 2016.[6]
Following a government decision on 11 December 2015, the embassy reopened in 2016.[7] The embassy was inaugurated on 22 November 2016 by EU and Trade Minister Ann Linde together with a Team Sweden delegation. The embassy closed again in August 2022.[2]
The Finnish embassy in Lima was opened for the first time on July 1, 1963. However, it was closed on September 1, 1991 due to the economic depression affecting the country at the time, as well as the Internal conflict in Peru. The embassy was reopened on February 1, 1998.[8]
The former Swedish embassy now solely houses the diplomatic mission of Finland since 2022.[1] In addition to the embassy, an ambassadorial residence was formerly operated in San Isidro, located at the address of Guillermo Marconi 270,[9] between the embassies of North and South Korea.
