- **Current official route — Peru: named ordinary passports visa-free for tourist entry** (Visa-free)
  The current Foreign Ministry ordinary-passport table marks these nationalities as exempt (Sí) from the tourist visa requirement. This is visa-free entry, not an eVisa, visa on arrival, transit waiver or document-only route.
  - The policy is limited to the table's tourist column and ordinary passports; it does not classify transit, business, study, employment, residence, diplomatic, official, service, special, identity-card or other-document routes.
  - The table assigns nationality-specific stay limits and extension rules. No uniform duration, extension, entry count, fee, port, health, funds, onward-travel or admission condition is inferred.
  - Foreign visitors remain subject to migration control and the corresponding temporary immigration category; a visa exemption does not guarantee admission.
