Peru's Immigration Regulations allow for persons to enter Peru to carry on certain business or trade-related activities without the need to hold an employment authorization, as they are not considered to be coming to Peru to work. These persons usually represent a foreign company, therefore they must present proof of it. Examples are: representatives coming to Peru to sell goods other than to the general public; employees of an organization coming to consult with a branch, subsidiary or parent; representatives of a foreign firm coming to purchase goods or services and persons seeking entry to sign contracts.
