East Timor is home to Papuan-speaking ethnic groups and maintains relations with the Melanesian and Pacific realm. As an observer, East Timor participated in the third summit of the ACP states in July 2002 and, since August 2002, in the annual meetings of the heads of state and government of the Pacific Islands Forum. In 2016, the country joined the Pacific Islands Forum. East Timor has had observer status in the Melanesian Spearhead Group since 2010.

East Timor and Papua New Guinea are both members of the Non-Aligned Movement, Organisation of African, Caribbean and Pacific States and the G7+ states, in which East Timor plays a leading role. Both nations hold observer status within ASEAN.

In 2019, Richard Maru, Papua New Guinea's Minister of National Planning and Monitoring, visited East Timor.
