Japan tourist visa requirements for Peruvians: Complete guide 2025

Are you planning to explore Japan's rich culture and stunning landscapes? As a Peruvian citizen, you need a tourist visa to visit Japan. We at iVisa understand the complexity of visa applications and offer comprehensive support to make your journey possible.

Understanding Japan tourist visa requirements for Peruvians

Do Peruvian citizens need a Visitor Visa for Japan? Yes! As a Peruvian citizen you need a visa to travel to Japan. You must get a Japanese Tourist Visa, also known as a Japan Visitor Visa, for tourism purposes.

Keep in mind that visa requirements may vary depending on your nationality. There are some visa-free countries, and other foreigners can apply for an online visa. If you’re from a different country than Peru, use our handy Visa Checker Tool to see if you have visa-free entry, can apply for an entry permit online/eVisa, or must get a valid visa at the Embassy.

What is the Japan Tourist Visa for Peruvian citizens? The Japan Tourist Visa is perfect if you dream of experiencing Japan's stunning sights and landscapes. This paper visa requires an application process at the Embassy, but you don’t need to worry about it: we’re here to help you! Let's take a closer look at the two Japan Tourist Visa types available:

Single-entry visa: With a single-entry visa, you can visit Japan as a tourist for a one-time trip. It’s valid for up to 90 days after issued, and you can stay in the country for 15 to 30 days per entry. At iVisa, our iVisa Experts can help you easily navigate the application process!

Multiple-entry visa: A multiple-entry visa allows you to make several tourism trips to Japan over three years, with a maximum stay of 90 days per entry. Unfortunately, we don't provide guidance services for this option.

When you apply with us, our iVisa Experts will assist you with the necessary paperwork, ensuring a smooth application process. Just remember to apply for this visa in your residence country.

Pro Tip: Based on customer feedback, we recommend starting your visa application at least 8 weeks before your planned travel date. This allows sufficient time for document preparation and potential embassy processing delays.
