Latin American Integration Association is a Latin American trade integration association, based in Montevideo.

The Ambassador of Colombia to Uruguay is the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Colombia to the Oriental Republic of Uruguay, dually accredited as Permanent Representative to the Latin American Integration Association.

It was effectively superseded in 1980 by the Latin American Integration Association (LAIA), which allowed bilateral deals and has since been an umbrella under which they have proliferated (Tussie 1987: p. 129).

Both countries are founding members of the Latin American Integration Association.

Cuba joined the Latin American Integration Association becoming the tenth member (out of 12) on 26 August 1999.

Determined to standardize Latin America's confusing patchwork of trade agreements, the leaders formally requested that existing accords be compared and reconciled by two regional economic groups, the Latin American Integration Association and the United Nations Economic Commission on Latin America.
