The Colombia–Peru border is a 1626 kilometer long continuous international border separating the territories of the two countries. It was established in the Salomón-Lozano Treaty of 24 March 1922 and by the Río de Janeiro Protocol of 24 May 1934, which ended the Colombia-Peru War of 1932. Both agreements establish the border at thePutumayo River, with the exception of the Amazon Trapeze between the Putumayo and Amazon rivers, which is under the sovereignty of Colombia.

According to these treaties, the boundaries between Colombia and Perú are as follows:
The border is defined as:
- From the confluence of the Güepí and Putumayo rivers, between Peru, Ecuador and Colombia, downstream along the Putumayo River, to the mouth of the Yaguas River.
- A straight line drawn from the mouth of the Yaguas River, in Putumayo, to the mouth of the Atacuari River, in the Amazon.
- The Amazon River, downstream, following its course, to the mouth of the San Antonio ravine, where the border with Brazil begins.
