What Is the Peru Rentista Visa ?

The Peru Rentista Visa is a resident migratory status for foreign nationals who receive a retirement pension or permanent income from a Peruvian or foreign source.

If you meet the applicable requirements and your application is approved, you may reside in Peru under Rentista status. The Rentista migratory status is granted for an indefinite period and is not subject to a residence-renewal process. Your Carné de Extranjería is a separate identity document and may require renewal, replacement, or information updates when applicable.

 

We’ll help you determine whether you qualify, prepare the required documents, complete your application correctly, and guide you through each step of the process.
