Do Finland passport holders need a visa to visit PE?

Q: How long can I stay in Peru without a visa?

Up to 90 days per entry, capped at 183 days total within a 365-day period. Officers may grant fewer days at their discretion, so check your entry stamp.

Q: Does the Schengen 90/180 rule or ETIAS apply when going to Peru?

No. Peru is not in the Schengen area, so neither the Schengen 90/180 rule nor ETIAS applies to this trip. ETIAS only affects non-EU travelers (such as Peruvians) entering Europe.

Q: What is the TAM and do I need to print it?

The Tarjeta Andina de Migracion is Peru's entry/exit record. It is now digital and issued automatically on arrival; you do not need to fill out a paper card, but keep your passport stamp and can verify your record on the Migraciones portal.

Q: Can I extend my tourist stay in Peru?

Generally no. Since Decreto Legislativo 1582 (2023) most tourists cannot extend a tourist stay. Plan to leave within your authorized days; overstays incur a per-day fine paid at exit.

Q: Is a return ticket required?

It is strongly recommended. Airlines and immigration officers may ask for proof of onward or return travel and evidence of funds.

No visa needed. Finnish passport holders can enter Peru visa-free for tourism for up to 90 days (within a 183-day annual cap), receiving a digital Tarjeta Andina de Migracion (TAM) at the border. Finland is an EU/Schengen member state, and Peru grants visa-free tourist entry to all EU nationals. A Finnish ordinary passport holder needs no visa and no advance authorization for short tourist visits. On arrival at Lima's Jorge Chavez airport or a land border, immigration issues a digital Tarjeta Andina de Migracion (TAM) and stamps the passport, normally for up to 90 days. By law the cumulative tourist stay is capped at 183 days within a 365-day period, but officers frequently grant fewer days at their discretion, so do not assume a full 90 days. Tourist stays generally cannot be extended (per Decreto Legislativo 1582 of 2023); overstaying triggers a daily fine payable on exit. Note: Peru is NOT in the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply to this direction of travel. ETIAS is a separate scheme that will affect Peruvians visiting Europe, not Finns visiting Peru. Travelers should hold a passport valid for the stay (six months recommended), proof of onward/return travel, and evidence of funds and accommodation.
