Japan erected a monument to Admiral Perry on July 14, 1901, at the spot where the commodore first landed.
 The monument survived World War II, and is now the centerpiece of a small seaside park called Perry Park at Yokosuka, Japan.
Within the park there is a small museum dedicated to the events of 1854.
Admission is free, and the museum is open from 10 a.m. to 4 pm, seven days a week.

Matthew C. Perry Elementary and High School can be found on Marine Corps Air Station, Iwakuni, Japan.

In his birthplace, Newport, Rhode Island, there is a memorial plaque in Trinity Church, Newport, and a statue of Perry in Touro Park.
It was designed by John Quincy Adams Ward, erected in 1869, and dedicated by his daughter.
He was buried in Newport's Island Cemetery, near his parents and brother.
There are also exhibits and research collections concerning his life at the Naval War College Museum and at the Newport Historical Society.

The U.S. Navy's Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigates (purchased in the 1970s and 1980s) were named after Perry's brother, Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry.

On December 2, 2008, Secretary of the Navy Donald C. Winter announced that the ninth ship of the Lewis and Clark class of dry-cargo-ammunition vessels would be named USNS Matthew Perry for Perry.
