Diplomatic relations

The Oriental Republic of Uruguay recognized Montenegro on December 1, 2008, and diplomatic relations were established on February 25, 2009. The Ambassador of the Oriental Republic of Uruguay based in Greece is Ambassador Enrique Leodel, and the Embassy of Montenegro in Buenos Aires covers Uruguay on a non-resident basis (Ambassador Srdjan Stankovic is not yet accredited in Uruguay).

The Honorary Consulate of Montenegro in Montevideo was opened on June 11, 2015, and Mario Danilo Klisić was appointed Honorary Consul.

The overall relations between Montenegro and the Oriental Republic of Uruguay can be assessed as friendly. There are no open issues, but there is a need to legally formalize and, in practice, intensify cooperation in all fields, especially bearing in mind that Uruguay is a country where not an insignificant part of the population is made up of Montenegrin residents in Uruguay, which makes up a significant percentage of our total diaspora in the world.

There is currently one association of Montenegrin emigrants in Montevideo - the Montenegrin community of Uruguay, which was founded in 2015 (led by Nikolas Klisić).

Official visits

There were no official visits between the two countries.
