Pakistan-Algeria enjoy extremely cordial ties. Pakistan was a strong supporter of Algerian independence even before the inception of the People's Democratic Republic of Algeria. Pakistan was one of the first countries to recognize the “Provisional Government of Republic of Algeria” in exile on 19 September 1958 under the Prime Ministership of Farhat Abbas and had permitted it to open its Mission in Karachi.                 

            Pakistan was one of the first countries to establish diplomatic relations with Algeria on 16 August in 1963, after Algeria gained independence on 5^th July 1962 from French colonial rule. Since then, both nations have maintained diplomatic missions in each other's capitals, fostering a foundation for cooperation.

            The diplomatic relations between Pakistan and Algeria have evolved over the decades, establishing a foundation for collaboration in various fields. The bilateral relations have remained generally positive. Both countries have consistently been supporting each other in various international fora, including the UN, the OIC and NAM.
