Germany and Timor-Leste

Relations between Timor-Leste and Germany are very cordial. Since the UN Transitional Administration of 1999, East Timor has received extensive assistance from Germany for nation-building. After achieving national independence on 20 May 2002, East Timor was recognized by Germany under international law and diplomatic relations were established. 

Development Co-operation in Timor-Leste

Germany's commitment to development cooperation in Timor-Leste takes a variety of forms. Since 1999, Germany has contributed around 44,3 billion Euro for bilateral development cooperation with Timor-Leste.
