Visa Information:

Visas will be requested by UPC and processed by the Peruvian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The process, once all documents have been submitted, may take from 30 to 45 business days to be completed by the Ministry. Once the corresponding code is provided, UPC will contact foreign institutions indicating that students may pick up their visas. Students must contact the Peruvian General Consulate nearest to the city where their home institution is located and confirm the documents they will need to submit in order to pick up the visa. The cost of a Peruvian student visa is approximately US$25.00.

In order to process visas, the following documents are mandatory:

  1. Presentation letter from home institution stating semester abroad at UPC, academic program they are registered in at their home institution and with institutional letterhead.
  2. Copy of valid passport
  3. Copy of flight tickets and/or reservations
  4. International insurance policy with coverage in Peru: this policy must state the students name and provide coverage for the period of time they will be in Peru.
  5. Document evidencing economic solvency while the student is staying in Peru.
     

If any of these documents are incorrect or missing from student files, the visa process will be observed and delayed.
