There are no visa requirements for travelers from the USA, UK or Canada going to Peru.
Important: A copy (photo) of your passport is needed in order for us to book Machu Picchu tickets. Please ensure you upload it to our Trip Hub or send it to Discover Corps right after registration. If you need to renew it, please do so as soon as possible and let your Travel Coordinator know that you are in the process of renewing it.
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months after your scheduled departure date from Peru. It is also important that you have at least one completely blank page (with no stamps or visas) in your passport. This is a requirement for entry into many countries. If your passport is nearly full, it might be a good idea to apply for additional pages.
Any international travel requires the use of a passport. If you do not have a passport, it is important to apply for one as soon as possible. It often takes four to six weeks to process the paperwork for a passport (and even longer during the peak travel season of March to August).
For questions about obtaining or renewing your passport (American citizens), you can visit travel.state.gov. If you are a U.S. citizen, we recommend working with G3 Visas and Passports to make the process smooth and easy.
Make several photocopies of your passport. Leave a copy at home with your family and carry a copy with you at all times when you are overseas for identification purposes, money changing, etc. If you should lose your passport, having a copy will speed up the process of replacing it.
