Peru to Require Valid Visa Entry for Venezuela Nationals

Effective July 2, 2024, Venezuelan nationals must have a valid passport and corresponding Peruvian visa to enter Peru.

Since June 15, 2019, Venezuelan nationals had also been permitted to enter Peru with an expiring or expired passport.  This was based on an international agreement regarding the extension of the validity of Venezuelan passports and a decision by the Venezuelan authority itself to extend the validity of their passports. However, currently there is no decision by the Venezuelan authority to continue with the extension of validity of their passports and no international agreement in that regard.
