Mali and Mexico established diplomatic relations on 23 March 1977. Relations have developed mainly within the framework of multilateral forums. In 2001, Mexico established an honorary consulate in Bamako.
In 1961, the president of Mexico, Adolfo López Mateos, sent a presidential goodwill delegation, headed by Special Envoy Alejandro Carrillo Marcor and Delegate José Ezequiel Iturriaga, to visit Mali and pave the way for the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two nations.
In September 2010, a Malian delegation arrived in Mexico City to participate in the celebrations of the Bicentennial of the Independence of Mexico.
In November 2010, the Government of Mali sent a delegation of 37 members to attend the 2010 United Nations Climate Change Conference held in Cancún, Mexico.
In March 2012, Mexico condemned the coup d'état in Mali and joined the call of the international community for the immediate return to constitutional order. It emphasized the importance of respecting democratic institutions and the rule of law. Mexico also expressed concern over the constitutional crisis in Mali and the situation prevailing in the northern part of the country.
In April 2014, the minister of economy and finance of the Government of Mali, Fily Sissoko Bouaré, paid a working visit to Mexico to participate in the first high-level meeting of the Global Partnership for Effective Development Co-operation.
