China has an embassy in Banjul, while The Gambia has an embassy in Beijing.
In July 1995, The Gambia recognized the Republic of China (Taiwan), prompting the People's Republic of China to suspend its foreign relations with Gambia. China-The Gambia relations were re-established on March 17, 2016, and The Gambia no longer recognizes Taiwan.
To strengthen educational exchanges and bilateral ties, the public University of The Gambia in 2018 signed a memorandum of understanding with China's Guizhou University to establish a Confucius Institute at the University of The Gambia.[1]
