Relations between Germany and the Central African Republic are friendly.

Germany is engaged in the Central African Republic through the European Union Advisory Mission and the Special Criminal Court. Furthermore, from 2021 to 2025, the Federal Foreign Office made available some 143.5 million euro for humanitarian assistance.

Germany is also active in the field of peacebuilding and since 2020 has paid some 200 million euro into the United Nations Peacebuilding Fund with a current total volume of 12.5 million euros, which is also used to finance projects in the Central African Republic, for example to promote reconciliation and political dialogue. The UN Women’s Peace & Humanitarian Fund, to which Germany has contributed a total of over 80 million euros since 2019, is also engaged in promoting civil society in the Central African Republic.

Germany closed its Embassy in the capital Bangui in 1997 and since then the German Embassy in Yaoundé, Cameroon has been responsible for the country. For the Central African Republic’s part, through its Embassy in Paris, the country maintains relations with Germany.
