The 30-year-old revealed his decision on Twitter Friday, four days after joining United Arab Emirates outfit Al-Fujairah from Brazil's Palmeiras, reports Xinhua.
"People have asked me if I am retiring from the national team," Valdivia wrote. "The response is yes. Thanks to everybody and forgive my mistakes."
Valdivia won 58 caps and scored five goals for Chile, having made his international debut in 2005.
