Both countries established relations in the 19th century. In 1851, Austria–Hungary recognized the independence of Peru, and both countries subsequently established relations.^[2] By 1859, ethnic Germans from Austria and Germany established and founded the colony of Pozuzo.^[2][3]

As a result of World War I, Peru severed relations with both Germany and Austria–Hungary, reestablishing them with the First Austrian Republic after the war.^[4] After the incorporation of Austria into the German Reich in 1938, Peru ceased to have relations with Austria, instead continuing its relations with Germany until 1942.^[5] During this period, the Austrian population in Peru saw itself polarized between Austrian loyalists and National Socialists.^[6]

In 1947, Peru recognized the Republic of Austria,^[2][7] and in 1949, bilateral relations were resumed.^[2]
