Algeria–Japan relations

Algeria has an embassy in Tokyo whilst Japan has an embassy in Algiers. Japanese form a small expatriate community in Algeria. As of 2008, 816 Japanese nationals reside in the country.^[1]

Overview

Japan is interested to contribute to Algeria's economic development as they are interested in the fact that Algeria possesses major energy resources and has a large internal market. There are Japanese companies which are interested in the Algerian five-year plan for 2009–2014, which provides for public investments of 286 billion dollars, notably to modernise and develop essential infrastructure.^[2] Many Japanese employees of these companies came to Algeria for various projects.^[3]

In 2010, Algeria withheld 100 billion yen ($1.2 billion) in payments owed to Japanese contractors for a highway construction project in the country as it was alleged that the companies had failed to meet the terms of the contract.^[4]

In November 2017, Algeria started exporting liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Japan.^[5]
