Egypt to Peru visa requirements
Egyptian ordinary passport holders need a tourist visa to enter Peru. It must be obtained in person from a Peruvian embassy or consulate (the Embassy in Cairo) before travel. There is no eVisa or visa-on-arrival option for Egyptian citizens, and Peru is not part of the Schengen area. As of 2026, Egypt is not on Peru's visa-waiver list, so an Egyptian ordinary passport holder must apply for a tourist (Visa Temporal) visa before traveling. Peru does not offer an electronic visa or visa on arrival to Egyptian nationals; the application is filed in person (with prior appointment) at a Peruvian consular post such as the Embassy of Peru in Cairo, supported by a passport valid at least 6 months, a confirmed return/onward ticket, accommodation proof, proof of sufficient funds, and the consular fee. Peru's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (gob.pe) states applications should be lodged at least 15 calendar days before the trip; the granted stay can be up to 183 days and consular processing typically takes about 3-7 working days. Peru is in South America and is NOT a Schengen state, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. Travelers should always confirm the latest requirements directly with the Peruvian Embassy in Cairo before booking, as consular fees and document lists can change.
