Spain to Peru visa requirements

Q: How long can I stay in Peru?

Immigration usually grants up to 90 days at entry. You can extend once, but total tourist stay cannot exceed 183 cumulative days within any 365-day period.

Q: What is the Tarjeta Andina de Migracion (TAM)?

It is Peru's migration card recording your entry and exit. It is handled electronically by Migraciones at the border; air travelers no longer receive a physical passport stamp.

Q: How long must my passport be valid?

Your passport should be valid for at least six months from your date of entry into Peru.

Q: Does ETIAS apply when traveling to Peru?

No. ETIAS is the EU's authorization for entering the Schengen area. Peru is in South America and is not part of Schengen, so ETIAS is irrelevant for trips to Peru.

Q: What happens if I overstay?

Overstaying triggers a daily fine (about S/ 5 per day in 2025) and can result in a re-entry ban, so stay within your authorized period.

Spanish (ES) ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa for tourism in Peru. You enter visa-free; immigration grants tourist stays of up to 90 days, extendable, capped at 183 cumulative days within any 365-day period. Peru is in South America, not the Schengen area, so ETIAS does not apply. Spain is on Peru's visa-exemption list, so Spanish ordinary-passport tourists enter Peru without any visa, eVisa, or visa-on-arrival. At the border, the Superintendencia Nacional de Migraciones records entry electronically via the Tarjeta Andina de Migracion (TAM) - physical passport stamps were phased out for air travelers. Immigration typically authorizes a tourist stay of up to 90 days, which can be extended once; total tourist permanence is capped at 183 cumulative (not necessarily consecutive) days within a rolling 365-day period. The passport should be valid for at least six months from the date of entry. Travelers should carry proof of onward/return travel and may be asked about accommodation and sufficient funds. Overstaying triggers a daily fine (around S/ 5 per day in 2025) and can lead to re-entry bans. Peru is not part of the Schengen area; the EU's ETIAS scheme is irrelevant for travel TO Peru (it applies only to non-EU nationals entering the Schengen zone). The verdict is clearly visa-free for a short tourist visit.
