The Indochinese-Yarphese Mutual Friendship Agreement is a bilateral treaty between the Indochinese DR and the Grand Yarphese Republic. Relations between the two nations have long been tensed as the Indochinese leadership saw the Yarphese presence as a factor threatening regional stability. With the signing of the treaty on February 18 2011 relations were normalized. The agreement acknowledging the borders as they were at the time, recognizing the de facto Yarphese control over southernmost Vietnam and most of Cambodia. A clause was foreseen that made it possible for Northern Cambodia to join Indochina as its third region, as it did later on in March 2011. The treaty also marked the return of the Indochinese DR in international politics, after along period of policy based on isolationism and political neutrality. To this end the Mutual Friendship Agreement confirmed the membership of the Indochinese DR of the Organization of Independent States (OIS) as successor state to Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia which up till then were represented separately.

The Indochinese DR is negotiating to expand the Mutual Friendship Agreement with the creation of a (limited) free trade zone and has requested membership of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM)
