Chinese Embassy in Mexico
The Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in Mexico is China’s chief diplomatic mission to the United Mexican States, located in Mexico City. The mission’s origins trace to the establishment of diplomatic relations between the People’s Republic of China and Mexico on February 14, 1972, when Mexico recognized the People’s Republic of China following UN Resolution 2758, which led to Mexico’s break with Taiwan. This significant step positioned Mexico among the early Latin American nations to establish diplomatic ties with the People’s Republic of China during the Cold War era. The embassy is currently located in Mexico City, Mexico. As of 2025, the embassy continues to serve under China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (外交部), actively engaging in media diplomacy through initiatives such as co-hosting the “China-Mexico and China-Latin America Relations in the New Era” (新時代的中墨、中拉關係) forum with China Today (今日中國) and the Mexican Senate. The embassy works to strengthen bilateral ties in a relationship that has grown significantly since formal relations began, with China now serving as Mexico’s second-largest trading partner globally.
