Official-source review: September 24, 2026. General guidance; use the current procedure for your circumstances.

Confirm the investment structure first

Review the in-country investor procedure before committing funds. The required evidence concerns the source and transfer of capital, the company’s registration and the investment’s legal structure.

The outside-Peru application, updated in January 2026, distinguishes a newly incorporated business from an increase in an existing company’s capital. An existing business needs additional evidence of operation. Ask your advisers to coordinate the corporate documents and bank trail with the migration requirements.

Application and costs

Choose the procedure for your location, prepare the authenticated records and file through the Agencia Digital. Review all notices in the electronic mailbox and complete requested follow-up steps. Verify the government fee immediately before payment. The investment, company setup, government charges and private assistance are different expenses.

Continuing obligations

Renewal is a separate application; consult the investor renewal procedure. Maintain evidence that the qualifying investment and business continue to meet the requirements. Do not assume investor status authorizes unrelated employment or removes business and tax obligations.

A later permanent-residence application assesses residence history and category-specific evidence. Treat it as a separate decision when eligible, rather than an automatic consequence of investing.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. The current published procedure states S/500,000. Older official PDFs still circulate with the former dollar amount.

No. The procedure describes investment in a company and requires incorporation or capital-increase evidence. A property purchase alone does not establish those conditions.

The published requirement specifies a single international disbursement through an eligible financial institution. Confirm the transaction structure before moving money.

No. Those are separate procedures with additional conditions. Meeting an investment threshold does not guarantee approval of any immigration application.
