South Korea – Timor-Leste Diplomatic Relations

Korea and Timor-Leste established diplomatic relations on the same day Timor-Leste achieved independence — May 20, 2002. Korea has since been one of the country's development partners, contributing through ODA programs in infrastructure and governance. Despite the small scale of bilateral engagement, the two countries maintain warm relations built on Korea's commitment to supporting post-conflict nation-building.

South Korea – Timor-Leste Trade & Economy

Trade between the two countries remains at an early stage of development. In 2023, Korean exports to Timor-Leste stood at around $2.85 million, while imports were minimal at approximately $560,000. Korean investment has been limited, but there is growing interest in Timor-Leste's energy sector as the country develops its offshore oil and gas resources.
