The Embassy of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in Lima was the official diplomatic mission of North Korea to the Republic of Peru. It is located in San Isidro District, Lima, Peru.

Diplomatic relations between Peru and North Korea are frozen since 2017, when Peru declared the Korean ambassador as a persona non grata and gave him 5 days to leave the country in response to the country's missile launches earlier that month.[3] This was followed by the expulsion of two more diplomats on December of the same year after reportedly conspiring to attack the families of the diplomatic staff of the U.S. Embassy in Lima.[4]
