A valid passport is required to enter and depart Peru. Tourists must also provide evidence of return or onward travel. You’ll receive a card from Peruvian Immigration upon arrival stating the length of approved stay (usually 90 days). Visit the Embassy of Peru Website for the most current visa information. Travelers should guard against the theft of luggage and other belongings, particularly U.S. passports.

At all airports, passengers must pay a departure tax of $31 for international flights and $6 for domestic flights, payable in cash only (either U.S. dollars or Peruvian nuevos soles).

No immunizations for entry are required, but the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Peruvian government recommend that travelers to Peru receive a yellow fever vaccination and carry documentation of the vaccination with them on their trip.

Peru does not observe Daylight Savings Time and is in the same time zone as the U.S. east coast.

Most people leave about a 10% tip for the wait staff in restaurants. In nicer restaurants that add a 10% service charge, many patrons tip an additional 5% or 10% (because little, if any, of that service charge will ever make it to the waiter’s pocket). Taxi drivers are not usually tipped unless they provide additional service. Bilingual tour guides on group tours should be tipped ($1-$2, per person for a short visit; and $5 or more per person for a full day). If you have a private guide, tip about $10 to $20.

Peruvian customs regulations require that many electronic items or electronic items for commercial use be declared upon entering the country. Failure to make a full and accurate declaration can lead to arrest, incarceration or significant fines. Undeclared items, including personal laptop computers, may be seized and held. All outlets are 220 volts, 60 cycles AC (except in Arequipa, which operates on 50 cycles), with two-prong outlets that accept both flat and round prongs. Some large hotels also have 110-volt outlets.
