Are you a remote worker dreaming of a life where you spend your days exploring stunning landscapes like the Huayhuash Mountain Range and your nights are filled with the flavors of ceviche and pisco sour? Peru may be calling your name with its latest offer.
Joining the ranks of other South American nations like Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Uruguay, and Ecuador, Peru has recently introduced a digital nomad visa. This new visa allows remote workers to immerse themselves in Peruvian culture and scenery for up to a year, with the option to extend their stay.
The visa will allow remote workers to live in Peru for up to a year, with the potential to extend their stay. Currently, visitors can stay there for up to 183 days on a tourist visa, but the hope is that the potential to stay longer and work will attract professionals who also visit tourist areas and support the economy.
