Step 2

Apply through the official route

The consulted consular instructions direct applications outside Peru and, for residents abroad, to the consulate for their residence. The current checklist remains pending confirmation: ask for the form, fee, appointment and full documents before paying or travelling.

  1. Confirm Portuguese-passport conditions and the earlier checklist’s current validity with the Peruvian mission.
  2. Prepare completed higher education or two completed university years and ask about accepted formats and translations.
  3. Confirm maintenance, return, insurance, passport, fee and appointment without importing another passport’s conditions.
  4. Apply outside Peru through the confirmed consular channel and check issue, entry and work conditions before travel.

Step 3

Read your approval and entry conditions

Read the entire approval notice: identity, dates, entry deadline and conditions. Keep it available offline. Do not assume the visa starts on your preferred date.

Step 4

Get ready for the trip

Earlier research gives up to six months of work during the stay, not six months per employer, and completed higher education or two university years. The funds amount and insurance coverage remain to be confirmed against the current checklist.

  • Passport, visa and requested evidence accessible offline.
  • Initial funds, insurance and departure costs checked separately.
  • First accommodation and airport transport arranged.

Step 5

Start your Working Holiday

The current arrival residence, registration and tax procedure has not been confirmed for this route. Ask the Peruvian mission for instructions specific to the granted permission before travelling and starting work.

Work

Up to 6 months of work during the stay
