Children of Peruvian parents born in the U.S. can have dual citizenship: U.S. citizenship by birth in the U.S. and Peruvian citizenship by descent (consanguinity). To obtain Peruvian citizenship, the parents must register the birth at the nearest Peruvian consulate in the U.S., or the process can be completed in Peru.
Key Aspects of Dual Nationality between Peru and the USA:
US Entry/Exit: It is mandatory to use a US passport to enter and exit the United States.
Entry/Exit from Peru: It is recommended to use your Peruvian passport to enter and exit Peru.
Children of Peruvians born in the U.S.: They are entitled to Peruvian nationality. The birth must be registered at the corresponding Peruvian Consulate before the age of 18.
Renunciation: The United States does not require renunciation of original nationality upon naturalization, and Peru allows dual nationality without restrictions.
To register a birth or apply for a Peruvian ID/Passport in the USA, you must contact the Consulate General of Peru closest to your address.
For specific procedures, it is recommended to contact the nearest Peruvian consulate in the U.S. or the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Process for obtaining Peruvian nationality.
Registration at the consulate: Parents must register their child's birth at the Peruvian consulate in the U.S. The consulate will act as the civil registration officer and issue a Peruvian birth certificate.
