OECD Council opens accession discussions with Peru as a candidate for OECD membership

The OECD opened accession discussions with Peru for OECD membership. The timeline for accession depends on whether Peru is aligned with the OECD's standards, policies and practices.

On January 25, 2022, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) officially announced that the OECD Council decided to open accession discussions with Peru as a candidate for OECD membership.

The process will include evaluations by 20 technical committees of Peru's alignment with the OECD's standards, policies and practices. There is no deadline for completing the accession process. The outcome and timeline depend on each candidate country's capacity to adapt and adjust to align with the OECD's standards and best practices.
