India-Bolivia relationship

India and Bolivia enjoy friendly and cordial relations.

The bilateral exchanges, trade and investment are modest but the potential for increasing mutually beneficial cooperation is substantial.

"There is a desire on both sides to improve the level of engagement and forge partnerships in sectors like lithium, mining, infrastructure development, health and pharmaceuticals, traditional systems of medicine, Information Technology, Space, capacity building and development cooperation,' the Indian Embassy in Bolivia said.

The two countries are exploring commercial tie-ups for supply of Bolivia’s lithium carbonate and production of lithium-ion battery products.
