🇵🇪 Does a Peruvian need a visa for Japan 🇯🇵?
No. Peruvian passport holders can visit Japan without a visa for up to 90 days.
Rule updated from Wikipedia's “Visa requirements for Peruvian citizens” (checked 2026-10-04); the older passport-index dataset (January 2025) listed Visa required. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of Japan or its official government website before you travel.
What this means for your trip
Visa-free entry lets you arrive with a valid passport and pass border control without applying in advance.
Border officers can still ask for a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and enough money for your stay, and they decide on entry. The stay limit applies per visit; many countries also cap total days within a period.
Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.

Plugs and voltage
Some of your plugs fit (A, B); for type C plugs bring a travel adapter for Japan's sockets (A, B). Mains voltage differs (Japan: 100 V; Peru: 220 V): most phone and laptop chargers accept 100–240 V, but single-voltage devices such as some hair dryers need a converter.
