India–Jamaica relations

India	Jamaica

India and Jamaica have traditionally experienced cordial and friendly relations as a result of cultural and political connections inherited from British colonisation, such as membership in the Commonwealth of Nations, parliamentary democracy, the English language and cricket.

Both nations are members of the Non-Aligned Movement, and Jamaica supports India's candidacy for permanent membership on a reformed UN Security Council.

Diplomatic missions

India has a High Commission in Kingston, whilst Jamaica has a High Commission in New Delhi.

Trade

Bilateral trade has been increasing at a healthy rate, from US$ 28.28 million in 2011-12 to over US$ 64 million in 2019-20. In 2021, the total bilateral trade was US$ 66.29 million with India's exports worth US$ 64.06 million, and India's imports from Jamaica were valued at US$ 2.23 million.

Indians in Jamaica

People of Indian origin or descent number over 3% of the population of Jamaica. This includes the descendants of indentured labourers brought between 1845 and 1917 and subsequent arrivals of professionals.

Other

Kamala Harris was born to a Jamaican father and Indian mother.
