In this section, you\u2019ll find the basic entry requirements so you can enter the country without complications and with everything clear before your trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-passport-and-minimum-validity-to-travel-to-peru\">Passport and Minimum Validity to Travel to Peru<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s start with the most important requirement for traveling to Peru: a valid passport. Peru does not officially require a six-month minimum validity, but many airlines do before allowing you to board. For that reason, it\u2019s best to travel with a passport that won\u2019t expire soon. This helps you avoid problems and makes your immigration process smoother. If your passport is close to expiring, renew it before your trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that your passport will be your main form of identification throughout your entire stay. You\u2019ll need it to enter the country, book tours, apply for permits such as the Inca Trail, and check any visa requirements if your nationality requires one. Keep your passport in good condition, carry a digital copy, and store a printed copy separately for safety. That way, you can travel confidently and fully enjoy your adventure in Peru.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"708\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salkantaytrekking.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/passport-on-suitcase-1024x708.jpg\" alt=\"passport on suitcase for travel to Peru\" class=\"wp-image-13710\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Documents for travel to Peru<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tourist-visa-depending-on-nationality\">Tourist Visa (Depending on Nationality)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Great news: not all travelers need a visa to enter Peru. In fact, immigration requirements vary significantly depending on your country of origin. Thanks to bilateral agreements, citizens of several South American countries can travel to Peru using only their National Identity Document (DNI), without needing a passport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, you\u2019ll find a detailed summary of the immigration requirements for the countries that visit Peru most frequently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table table-orange\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Nationality<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>DNI Accepted<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Passport Required<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Tourist Visa Needed<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Argentina<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Brazil<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Chile<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Colombia<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bolivia<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ecuador<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Spain<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>United States<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Mexico<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Canada<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>France<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Germany<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Australia<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>India<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If your country does not appear in the table, you can check whether you need a passport, a visa, or if you can enter with another type of document by reviewing Peru\u2019s official sources. The most reliable information is found on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gob.pe\/migraciones\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Peruvian Immigration website<\/strong><\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gob.pe\/rree\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Ministry of Foreign Affairs<\/strong><\/a>, where the full list of countries that require a visa is regularly updated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"708\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salkantaytrekking.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/visa-forms-1024x708.jpg\" alt=\"Visa forms for travel to Peru\" class=\"wp-image-13711\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Visa forms for travel<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-andean-migration-card-tam\">Andean Migration Card (TAM)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Andean Migration Card (TAM) is a mandatory immigration control document for travelers entering countries that are part of the Andean Community of Nations (CAN). In some countries, such as Peru, this document has been fully digitized, eliminating paper forms and the risk of losing them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Virtual TAM stores your personal information, entry date, nationality, and authorized length of stay. It can be checked online on the <a href=\"https:\/\/cel.migraciones.gob.pe\/ConsultaTAMVirtual\/VerificarTAM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Migraciones website<\/strong><\/a> to monitor your status or verify your allowed number of days. It\u2019s especially useful if you plan to extend your stay, change your visa, or confirm whether you\u2019re authorized to perform activities such as tourism, volunteering, or trekking, making your trip safer and more organized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"708\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salkantaytrekking.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/andean-migration-card-1024x708.jpg\" alt=\"Andean Migration Card for traveling to Peru\" class=\"wp-image-13712\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Andean Migration Card for traveling to Peru<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-maximum-stay-allowed-for-tourists-in-peru\">Maximum Stay Allowed for Tourists in Peru<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When planning your immigration procedures for Peru, it\u2019s also important to know how long you can stay as a tourist. Officially, travelers can stay up to 183 days within a 365-day period, which is about six months per year. However, for most travelers who can enter Peru without a visa, immigration officers typically grant up to 90 days within 180 days, although this may vary depending on the officer\u2019s discretion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also keep in mind that Peru no longer issues a physical stamp or paper document showing your authorized stay. All the information is recorded in the Virtual Andean Migration Card (TAM Virtual). For that reason, after entering Peru, it\u2019s recommended to check your TAM to confirm exactly how many days you were granted and avoid overstaying. This will help you plan your trip and any necessary permits more effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"green\"><strong>Fun fact:<\/strong> Although Peruvian law allows up to 183 days per year, in practice the \u201c90 days within 180 days\u201d rule is applied. This means you can stay up to 90 consecutive days, or enter and exit multiple times within a six-month window, as long as the total does not exceed 90 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"708\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salkantaytrekking.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/people-leaving-the-airport-1024x708.jpg\" alt=\"People arriving to Peru\" class=\"wp-image-13713\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">People arriving to Peru<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-vaccines-and-health-requirements-for-entering-peru\">Vaccines and Health Requirements for Entering Peru<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Peru does not have a strict list of mandatory vaccines for most travelers. In general, you can enter the country without presenting vaccination certificates, which makes the immigration process quite simple in this regard. Still, reviewing your basic immunization schedule\u2014tetanus, hepatitis A and B, measles, and chickenpox\u2014is recommended, especially if you plan outdoor activities or visits to rural areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only vaccine often recommended is the yellow fever vaccine, especially if you plan to visit jungle regions. While it is not required to enter Peru through Lima or for standard tourism, it is highly recommended for travelers visiting areas like Madre de Dios, Manu, the Amazon region, or jungle areas of Cusco. Additionally, some countries may require proof of yellow fever vaccination upon your return, depending on where you traveled within Peru.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"green\"><strong>Travel tip:<\/strong> For low-altitude, warm areas of Cusco\u2014such as Hidroel\u00e9ctrica or jungle trails to Machu Picchu\u2014it\u2019s recommended to get the yellow fever vaccine 10 days before traveling. It\u2019s not required to enter Peru, but it is important for your safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-the-dengue-vaccine-required-to-travel-to-peru\">Is the dengue vaccine required to travel to Peru?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, Peru does not require the dengue vaccine for tourists or for those entering for work or study. In addition, most internationally available dengue vaccines are intended for people who have previously had dengue, so they are not used as a general preventive measure for travelers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"708\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salkantaytrekking.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/health-vaccinations-peru-1024x708.jpg\" alt=\"Vaccinations before your trip to Peru\" class=\"wp-image-13714\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Vaccinations before your trip to Peru<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-requirements-for-minors\">Requirements for Minors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Travelers under 18 can enter Peru without major difficulties, but they must follow a few additional rules to avoid problems at the border. The main requirement is that the minor presents a valid passport (or DNI if they are from CAN or Mercosur countries in South America). They must be accompanied by at least one parent or their legal guardian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the child is traveling alone or with only one parent, a special authorization is required. In this case, Peru requires a travel permit signed by the non-traveling parent, or by both parents if the minor is traveling without either of them. This document must be notarized and legalized (or apostilled) according to the country of origin. Bringing a copy of the birth certificate is also recommended to verify the relationship if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-scenarios-depending-on-how-the-minor-travels\">Scenarios depending on how the minor travels<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Traveling with both parents:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Only a passport (or DNI if applicable) is needed.

You\u2019ll need a valid passport (or DNI if you&#8217;re from CAN or Mercosur) and must meet the travel requirements according to your nationality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before traveling, make sure the border you plan to use is open for international transit.

If you are bringing personal items (clothing, books, medicine, small electronics, etc.), many of these are tax-free as part of your personal luggage. For example, you can bring up to 3 liters of liquor for personal use without declaring it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, some items must be declared using the Customs Declaration Form, especially if they have high value, are considered \u201cmerchandise,\u201d or include restricted goods.

Once your extension is approved, you receive a new authorized period to continue traveling in Peru without issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-change-of-immigration-status-from-tourist-to-resident\">Change of Immigration Status (from Tourist to Resident)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you decide to study, work, or live in Peru for an extended period, you must apply for a change of immigration status, which costs up to S\/ 163.00 soles. This changes your status from tourist to a resident category (worker, family, student, investor, and others). The process is also done online and requires specific documents depending on the type of residence you are applying for, such as employment contracts, study certificates, or marriage certificates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-overstay-fines\">Overstay Fines<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you stay longer than allowed without an extension or a change of status, you must pay an overstay fine. This fine is calculated per day and must be paid before leaving the country. Although it does not prevent you from exiting, it can cause delays or complications for future entries, so it&#8217;s always best to stay within your authorized timeframe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The overstay fine in Peru is approximately 0.1% of the Tax Unit (UIT)\u2014S\/ 5,350.00 soles in 2025\u2014per day. For those whose Foreigner ID or extension has expired, Migraciones states that the calculation may differ, reaching up to 1% of the UIT per day if the change of immigration status is not submitted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-migraciones-registration-for-long-stays\">Migraciones Registration for Long Stays<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyone who obtains temporary or permanent residency must complete the Foreigner Registration and apply for their Foreigner ID (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gob.pe\/es\/institucion\/migraciones\/tema\/8-carne-de-extranjeria\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Carn\u00e9 de Extranjer\u00eda<\/strong><\/a>). This document functions as your official ID in Peru and allows you to use public services, open bank accounts, and complete local procedures. Keeping it up to date is mandatory for any resident. Currently, this process is the same as applying for the change of immigration status to resident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-procedures-for-getting-married-or-working-legally\">Procedures for Getting Married or Working Legally<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to get married in Peru, you must request the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gob.pe\/7307-obtener-ficha-de-canje-internacional-interpol\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>International Interpol Clearance Certificate<\/strong><\/a> and present documents such as your passport, birth certificate, and apostilled single-status certificates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To work legally, you need a worker visa or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gob.pe\/12931-cambiar-calidad-migratoria-residente-solicitar-cambio-de-calidad-migratoria-trabajador-residente\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>change of immigration status<\/strong><\/a> based on a work contract.

In general, tourist areas such as <strong>Lima, Cusco, Arequipa, Ica, and the Sacred Valley<\/strong> are safe if you follow basic recommendations and stay in well-known places. The key is to stay informed, avoid unnecessary risks, and always use formal services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-protect-your-belongings\">Protect Your Belongings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In markets, bus stations, and crowded squares, keep your backpack zipped and valuables stored.

For intercity travel, use formal, well-known bus companies. Avoid informal vehicles, especially at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reliable-accommodation\">Reliable Accommodation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Always book hotels, hostels, or guesthouses with good reviews.

Depending on your nationality, you may need a visa for Peru or additional permits. It\u2019s always best to check Peru\u2019s official Migraciones website before traveling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-which-countries-need-a-visa-to-enter-peru\">Which countries need a visa to enter Peru?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most countries do not need a visa to enter Peru as tourists, but some nationalities must apply before traveling. This mainly applies to citizens of certain countries in Asia, the Caribbean, and Africa. You can find the full list on the Migraciones website or your local Peruvian consulate\u2019s site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-long-can-i-stay-in-peru-as-a-tourist\">How long can I stay in Peru as a tourist?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The maximum stay is usually up to 183 days per year, but Migraciones decides the exact number of days when you enter Peru. If you need more time, you can request an extension within the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-can-i-travel-to-peru-with-only-my-national-id\">Can I travel to Peru with only my national ID?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, but only if you are from authorized countries such as Bolivia, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, or Ecuador. Other travelers must enter with a passport or visa, depending on the immigration requirements for their nationality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-i-apply-for-a-tourist-visa-for-peru\">How do I apply for a tourist visa for Peru?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You must begin the process at the Peruvian consulate in your country. They typically require a form, photo, valid passport, proof of funds, and travel reservations. Once approved, you can travel to Peru without problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-happens-if-i-need-to-extend-my-stay-in-peru\">What happens if I need to extend my stay in Peru?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can request an extension through the Migraciones Digital platform. This allows you to remain in the country legally without accumulating overstay penalties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-do-i-need-special-permits-to-go-trekking-in-cusco\">Do I need special permits to go trekking in Cusco?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Only some routes require official permits, such as the Inca Trail, which needs an authorized agency to process the permit. Other treks like Salkantay or Lares don\u2019t require permits, but you must carry proper identification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-travel-insurance-mandatory-to-enter-peru\">Is travel insurance mandatory to enter Peru?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not mandatory, but highly recommended\u2014especially if you plan to do trekking or high-altitude activities. Insurance protects you against accidents, illness, or medical emergencies during your trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-items-are-not-allowed-through-peruvian-customs\">What items are not allowed through Peruvian customs?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You cannot enter Peru with undeclared plant or animal products, weapons without authorization, or large amounts of money without reporting it. Always check customs regulations to avoid issues upon arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-do-minors-need-special-requirements-to-travel-to-peru\">Do minors need special requirements to travel to Peru?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. In addition to their ID, minors traveling alone or with only one parent must present a notarized, legalized travel authorization. This requirement helps protect minors and avoid complications at immigration control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You might be interested in:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salkantaytrekking.com\/blog\/packing-list-for-peru\/\"><strong>The Ultimate Packing List for Your Adventure in Peru<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salkantaytrekking.com\/blog\/reasons-why-peru-will-be-your-next-travel-destination-in-2025\/\"><strong>Reasons Why Peru Will Be Your Next Travel Destination<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salkantaytrekking.com\/blog\/best-time-to-visit-peru\/\"><strong>What is the best time to visit Peru?<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salkantaytrekking.com\/blog\/between-nature-and-culture-10-must-see-tourist-sites-in-peru\/\"><strong>Between Nature and Culture: 10 must-see tourist sites in Peru<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salkantaytrekking.com\/blog\/peru-destinations-the-best-places-to-visit-in-peru\/\"><strong>Peru Destinations: The Best Places to Visit in Peru<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list lang\">\n<li class=\"es\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caminosalkantay.com\/blog\/tramites-migratorios-para-viajar-a-peru\/\">ES<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"pt\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salkantaytrilha.com\/blog\/tramites-migratorios-para-viajar-ao-peru\/\">PT<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You\u2019ve decided to visit one of the world\u2019s great wonders\u2014Machu Picchu\u2014but you\u2019re a bit confused about what documents you need, what procedures to follow, or how visas work.
