The Bolivia–Chile border is an international border of South America. It separates Bolivia from Chile along Cordillera Occidental on the western edge of the Altiplano Plateau.
There is an ongoing[needs update] dispute about the nature of Silala River and Chile's use of its waters.[1][2][3][4]
Since 2021 the Bolivia–Chile border has been a major point of entry of irregular Venezuelan migrants into Chile.[5] Migrants are aided in the crossing by human smugglers.[6] Irregular migration has been particularly troublesome for the Chilean border town of Colchane.[6][7]
Indigenous Aymara communities live on both sides of the border.[8]
