Have a Peruvian employer and an employment contract or other qualifying basis for resident-worker status.
Coordinate the resident-worker visa application through the contracting company and the Peruvian consulate or Migraciones procedure applicable to the applicant's location.
Prepare the DGC-005 application form, valid identity document, passport with at least six months validity and blank pages, photographs, contract or employer evidence, and criminal-record documents where required.
Peru lists worker, professional, designated-worker, student, investor, rentista, and other resident categories separately. The worker route is tied to the activity and employer or contract described in the application.
Foreign documents, consular filing rules, and whether a separate entry visa is required depend on nationality and place of application; confirm the current consulate checklist before travel.
