About Peru Citizenship and Residency

Peru offers residency by investment, Peru is a country with an accumulation of natural resources and creates opportunities not only for the trade of goods on a national scale but also for sale throughout the world. Investing in Peru is all about finding a market that suits your individual needs. Whether it be through real estate, exports, or corporate formation, there is something to be capitalized on for every foreign investor.

Under the new Immigration Law (Legislative Decree N° 1350), in force since March 2017. To be eligible for the Investor visa you must make an investment of at least PEN500,000 (approximately 135,000 USD) in a Peruvian company or set up a Peruvian company with a capital investment of the same amount. Transfer of shares will not be considered an investment. The investment must be a one-way bank transfer that will be made directly from a bank account on your behalf. Applicants may be required to provide a business plan certified as viable by a local certified economist.

The investor visa is valid for one year, renewable if you prove that you still maintain the investment made, has hired at least 5 locals, and have stayed in Peru for at least 183 days during the year. After two years of legally residing in Peru, you may be eligible for citizenship, provided that you prove ties to the country, such as rental or purchase of residential property, you have been residing there during the whole period and you have knowledge of the Spanish language and the culture and values of the country.
