Business Traveling in Peru

Business Traveling in Peru

Anyone traveling to Peru for business purposes, regardless of the nationality, has to apply for a business visa at a Peruvian Consulate before entering the country or at immigration in Peru. This is essential particularly when entering into contracts or financial agreements.

The Business Visa is a multiple entry visa, which permits you to enter Peru and leave Peru multiple times during the visa's validity period, often a 6 month time frame, typically with a maximum stay of 90 days. Of course, the Peruvian consulates may restrict this duration at their discretion. Peruvian Business Visas can't be extended.

Requirements for a Peruvian Business Visa include, but not limited to:

  • Round Trip Ticket
  • Application Form
  • Application fee
  • Valid Passport
  • Passport photos
  • Proof of legal residency in the country from which you submit your application
  • A letter from the company sponsoring the business trip, which states the purpose of the visit and length of the trip
  • Proof that the traveler has sufficient funds for the duration of the trip.

As in all cases of foreign travel, it is necessary to check the specific entry and exit requirements with the nearest Peruvian Consulate, as Business Visa requirements may differ, depending on your country of origin, and are subject to change without prior notice.

Peru's climate is very diverse, so careful research is helpful when planning your business wardrobe. Formal business attire is the standard in the larger cities. For men, this means a business suit or dress slacks and sport jacket, and for women, a dress or skirt suit is recommended.

Businesses generally open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Saturday. Many offices and some businesses still closed for lunch between 1 and 3 p.m.
