Family Member Visa for Peru

The Family Visa allows you to live in Peru legally if you have close family ties to a Peruvian citizen or a legal resident. It’s a common option for spouses, children, or parents who wish to reunite and live together in Peru.

This visa offers a clear path to long-term residency and is a great solution for families who want to build a life in Peru together.

Who can apply for a family member visa in Peru?

You may qualify for the Family Visa if:

  • You are married to a Peruvian citizen or resident

  • You are the parent of a Peruvian minor

  • You are a child or parent of a Peruvian or a legal resident

  • Your family member in Peru holds a valid Carné de Extranjería

You can apply for this visa while in Peru on a tourist visa — but you must start the process before it expires.

Requirements

To apply, you’ll need:

  • A marriage certificate (or birth certificate) issued within the last 6 months

  • The document must be apostilled or legalized in your home country

  • Police Clearance Certificate from your home country (also apostilled or legalized)

  • Official translations of all foreign documents into Spanish

  • Supporting declarations and legal letters (we’ll prepare these for you)

  • Proof of legal entry into Peru (entry stamp or TAM virtual)

All foreign documents must be recent and legally valid in Peru for only 6 months from issuance.
