| 2026-10-13 | Traffic tickets in Peru | Presented paying 17% or 33% of the fine (article 336 of the National Traffic Regulation) as the only discounted payment, and said paying the ticket makes the points firm. It did not mention the 2026 exceptional regime or the new wording of article 336. | It keeps the ordinary 17% or 33% rule and adds the exceptional regime of D.S. 017-2026-MTC (El Peruano, 25 August 2026): a 90% reduction of many traffic fines, including ATU fines and fines under provincial ordinances, for 90 calendar days (our reading is 26 August to 23 November 2026, because the decree does not write the dates); fines paid this way neither generate nor keep points; any appeal must be withdrawn; codes M.1, M.2, M.3, M.4, M.20.C, M.27, M.28, M.37, M.38 and M.39 are excluded; and the more favourable regime may be chosen. It also explains that D.S. 011-2026-MTC (El Peruano, 21 April 2026) rewrites article 336 with the same scale and a different exclusion list, in force 120 business days after publication (by our count, 14 or 15 October 2026). It remains "partial". |
| 2026-10-13 | How to file a complaint with Sunafil | Said that since 10 July 2026 inspection of microenterprises returned to the regional governments and that a complaint against a microenterprise goes to the regional labor directorate, without saying what counts as a microenterprise. | It now says article 2 of Resolución Ministerial 194-2026-TR only transfers the files of employers on the list approved by Resolución Ministerial 184-2026-TR, and that for inspection a microenterprise is an employer with "entre uno y diez trabajadores registrados en la Planilla Electrónica" (between one and ten workers on the electronic payroll; article 2 of D.S. 015-2013-TR as quoted by Resolución Ministerial 157-2021-TR), not the 150 UIT sales cap. Our reading is that if the employer has eleven or more workers, the complaint still goes to Sunafil. We could not read Resolución Ministerial 184-2026-TR or the original D.S. 015-2013-TR: the page is now "partial". |
| 2026-10-13 | Children's rights in Peru | The quotation of article 9 of the Children and Adolescents Code repeated the words "por los medios que elijan" by mistake. | The quotation reproduces the wording given by Ley 32617, without the repetition: "…en todos los asuntos que les afecten y por los medios que elijan, sin ningún tipo de discriminación…". |
| 2026-10-13 | Food poisoning or spoiled food at a restaurant | Quoted Article 90 of Ley 26842 as worded by Ley 27932 (2003) and the first paragraph of Article 92 as worded by Ley 29459 (2009): "La Autoridad de Salud de nivel nacional es la encargada del control sanitario de los alimentos y bebidas". It warned that Legislative Decree 1222 (2015) had amended Article 92 again and that we did not know whether it was in force. | It quotes Articles 90 and 92 as worded by Legislative Decree 1290 (El Peruano, 29 December 2016), read in the Congress PDF. Article 92 now says the national-level health authority, "o a quien esta delegue" (or whoever it delegates to), is in charge of "control y vigilancia sanitaria de los alimentos, por productos sanitarios y dispositivos médicos"; the page quotes that "por" as published and explains that we read it as a list. Article 90 extends the ban to food from unlicensed establishments or without a sanitary import authorisation. The same decree repealed Legislative Decree 1222, so the page no longer presents it as a pending change. It stays "partial" because of the undated copies of Leyes 29571 and 27972. |
| 2026-10-13 | Sunafil fine table | Said we could not confirm whether the regulation of Ley 32353 had been published; the law's entry into force (and with it the 70% fine reduction for microenterprises) depends on it. | It says that, as of 13 October 2026, we found no such regulation: the Congress technical sheet for Ley 32353 lists none, and the Lima Chamber of Commerce (not an official source) wrote on 28 September 2026 that the law is not yet applicable because its regulation has not been published. As far as we could find, the law is not in force yet and the 50% reduction for micro and small enterprises still applies. |
| 2026-10-13 | MYPE labor regime | Said we could not confirm whether the regulation of Ley 32353, on which its entry into force depends, had been published. | It says that, as of 13 October 2026, we found no such regulation: the Congress technical sheet for Ley 32353 lists none, and the Lima Chamber of Commerce (not an official source) wrote on 28 September 2026 that the law is not yet applicable because its regulation has not been published. As far as we could find, the law is not in force yet and the consolidated MYPE Law (TUO) still applies. |
| 2026-10-13 | Unfair dismissal | Explained that Ley 32431 adds a cancer diagnosis as a ground for null dismissal, as item f) of Article 65 of Legislative Decree 728, and said we did not publish its equivalence with Article 29 of the TUO. A FAQ listed a cancer diagnosis among the grounds "under article 29". | It keeps the quote and adds, as our reading, that Ley 32431 uses the original numbering of Legislative Decree 728, the Ley de Fomento del Empleo, and that the item corresponds to Article 29 of the TUO (D.S. 003-97-TR), whose chapeau it reproduces. Neither Ley 32431 nor its regulation (D.S. 008-2026-TR) says so expressly. The FAQ now attributes the cancer diagnosis to Ley 32431. |
| 2026-10-13 | Property tax | Presented as in force Articles 14 (sworn-declaration deadlines, including the buyer's) and 16 (the seller pays the whole year's tax by the last business day of the month after the sale) of the consolidated Municipal Taxation Law, read in the original 2004 text. | It warns that Legislative Decree 1520 (El Peruano, extraordinary edition of 31 December 2021) amended, according to that edition's summary, Articles 7, 14, 30 and item f) of Article 37, and that unofficial sources contradict each other on whether it repealed Article 16. We could not read that decree on an official source: the page presents both articles as the original 2004 text, asks readers to confirm both points with their municipality and becomes "partial". |
| 2026-10-13 | How to file a complaint with Sunafil | Presented Sunafil's portal as the channel to report any employer, without mentioning that Sunafil's competence over microenterprises was temporary. | It adds that Resolución Ministerial 194-2026-TR (El Peruano, 23 July 2026) treats the temporary assignment under Ley 30814 as expired on 10 July 2026 and says it falls "a los Gobiernos Regionales reasumir" (to the regional governments to resume) inspection of microenterprises in their territory. The page says, as our reading, that a complaint against a microenterprise is handled by the regional labor directorate, and that we did not confirm whether Sunafil's portal accepts and forwards it. |
| 2026-10-13 | Techo Propio bonus not disbursed | Attributed the rule that projects already in process stay under the previous rules (Resolución Ministerial 313-2020-VIVIENDA) to the first transitional provision, linked to the operating rules' supplement. | That provision belongs to Resolución Ministerial 0104-2025-VIVIENDA itself, not to the operating rules it approves. The page says so and links the resolution's text published on gob.pe. The quoted text is unchanged. |
| 2026-10-13 | Family reunification | Quoted Article 38 of Decreto Legislativo 1350 in its original 2017 version: eight categories of relatives, including "the first-degree ascendant of the spouse or common-law partner" (item h), and said the resident's in-laws can request Family Resident status. It also described the children without requiring them to be the couple's. | It quotes Article 38 as worded by Decreto Legislativo 1582 (El Peruano, 14 November 2023): seven items. The children in items b, c and d must be "of the couple formed under item a"; a child of only one of the two comes in under items e or f, which cover a minor and an adult with a disability. Item g now reads "the ascendant of the couple formed under item a", and item h is gone. The page explains that the current text does not say whether it reaches in-laws, whether it is limited to the first degree, or how it applies to a resident with no partner, and presents that as our reading. |
| 2026-10-13 | Police identity checks | Quoted Article 10.1 of Decreto Legislativo 1350 in its 2017 text (Migraciones' 2018 edition) as a duty of foreigners only to "exhibit their identity or travel document proving their current migratory status". | It quotes Article 10, item 10.1, letter a), as worded by Decreto Legislativo 1582, read in El Peruano: the duty to exhibit the identity or travel document belongs to "Peruvian and foreign persons"; for foreigners, the document must prove their current migratory status, and it is shown to Migraciones, the Policía Nacional "and other Peruvian authorities, within their powers". |
| 2026-10-13 | Can they keep your ID card? | Quoted Article 10.1 of Decreto Legislativo 1350 in its 2017 text (Migraciones' 2018 edition) as a duty of foreigners only to exhibit their document. | It quotes Article 10, item 10.1, letter a), as worded by Decreto Legislativo 1582, read in El Peruano: the duty to exhibit the identity or travel document applies to Peruvians and foreigners, and for a foreigner the document must prove their current migratory status. The page's conclusion is unchanged: exhibiting is not surrendering. |
| 2026-10-13 | Immigration fines and expulsion | Quoted Article 192 of the regulation (fines on lodgings) in its earlier text and Articles 53 and 54 of Decreto Legislativo 1350 in their 2017 text, with the sentence "En ningún caso MIGRACIONES aplicará sanciones a niñas, niños y adolescentes", and said Article 53 guarantees due process (notice, defence and appeal). | It quotes Article 192 as worded by D.S. 011-2024-IN, read in El Peruano: the fines (1, 1 and 2 UIT, amounts unchanged) are aimed at legal entities providing lodging services, and letter c) penalises failing to send Migraciones the guest record or information, including the document number. It quotes Article 53.3 as worded by Decreto Legislativo 1582: "En ningún caso MIGRACIONES aplica sanciones a niñas, niños y adolescentes". The current Article 53 no longer mentions due process: the page now cites the five-business-day deadline to file a defence in Article 209.1 of the regulation (D.S. 011-2024-IN) and notes that Decreto Legislativo 1687 amends Article 53 again, with entry into force tied to an adapting supreme decree whose publication we have not confirmed. |
| 2026-10-13 | Guardianship of a foreign child | Quoted the definition of an unaccompanied child or adolescent as letter b) of Article 4 of the immigration regulation (D.S. 007-2017-IN). | D.S. 009-2023-IN reordered Article 4 and that definition is now letter d), with the same text. The page cites that decree in El Peruano and notes that it takes effect with the amendment to the Migraciones TUPA, which we did not verify. |
| 2026-10-13 | PTP and CPP | Quoted as the current Article 36 of Decreto Legislativo 1350 the text given by Decreto Legislativo 1582: foreigners in irregular status can apply to regularize "under the rules that are issued". | Decreto Legislativo 1597 (El Peruano, 17 December 2023) replaced that article: "El Estado regula los procesos de regularización migratoria; a través de las disposiciones que dicte MIGRACIONES." The page quotes that text and explains that Decreto Legislativo 1687 (2024) replaces it again, but that change takes effect only with the supreme decree adapting the regulation, whose publication we have not confirmed. |
| 2026-10-13 | What happens if you don't pay a Migraciones fine | Quoted Article 36 of Decreto Legislativo 1350 as worded by Decreto Legislativo 1582, which left regularization to "the rules issued for regularization", and one step said it defers to whatever the regulation sets. | It quotes Article 36 as worded by Decreto Legislativo 1597 (El Peruano, 17 December 2023): the State regulates regularization "through the rules Migraciones issues". It mentions that Decreto Legislativo 1687 replaces it again, with entry into force tied to an unconfirmed adapting supreme decree. The rest is unchanged: neither text says whether an unpaid fine blocks regularization. |
| 2026-10-13 | Digital nomads in Peru | Said tourist status allows "up to 183 calendar days, extendable up to 365 days", attributed Article 29 to the regulation of Decreto Legislativo 1350, and quoted the tourist item as worded by Decreto Legislativo 1582. | Article 29.1, item h), as worded by Decreto Legislativo 1687 (October 2024), read in El Peruano, sets up to 183 calendar days accumulated over a 365-day period counted from the first regular entry, with extension only up to the 183 days. Article 29 belongs to the statute, not the regulation. The attribution of digital nomad status (Article 29.2, item i) to Decreto Legislativo 1582 stands: it is not in the original 2017 text. |
| 2026-10-13 | Building without a license in Peru | Said the regularization procedure under D.S. N.° 035-2006-VIVIENDA only covers buildings built or demolished before July 21, 1999, that there is no permanent national route for later work apart from the article 30 window in Ley 29090, and quoted the original wording of article 3. | D.S. N.° 008-2019-VIVIENDA (published February 12, 2019) amended article 3: the procedure covers buildings «construidas o demolidas hasta el 31 de diciembre de 2016» (built or demolished up to December 31, 2016). The page now quotes that text and explains the three date bands: up to December 31, 2016, D.S. 035-2006-VIVIENDA; January 1, 2017 to September 17, 2018, the municipality under article 30 of Ley 29090; after that, only municipal ordinances. It adds D.Leg. N.° 1595, which repeals both routes but takes effect 120 business days after its regulation is published (not confirmed). The page is now "partial". |
| 2026-10-13 | Tables, awnings and goods on the sidewalk | Quoted article 49 of Ley 27972 as allowing the municipality to order «el retiro de materiales o la demolición de obras e instalaciones» (the removal of materials or the demolition of works and installations) occupying public roads, and article 46 with stopping works and demolition among municipal sanctions. | Ley 32035 (published May 25, 2024) changed both articles: article 49 now covers only «el retiro de materiales que ocupen las vías públicas» (the removal of materials occupying public roads), and article 46 no longer lists stopping works or demolition, which became corrective measures under the new article 52-A, with thirty business days to regularize or fix the problem. The page quotes the current text, read in the copy of El Peruano published by Congress. |
| 2026-10-13 | Food poisoning or spoiled food at a restaurant | Quoted articles 90 and 92 of the General Health Law in their original 1997 wording: article 90 banned selling food that is «alterados, contaminados, adulterados o falsificados» (altered, contaminated, adulterated or counterfeit), and article 92 included cosmetics, supplies and other products in sanitary control. | Article 90 is now quoted as worded by Ley 27932 (2003), which adds food «que hayan sido declarados no aptos para el consumo humano por el organismo correspondiente» (declared unfit for human consumption by the relevant body). The first paragraph of article 92 is quoted as worded by Ley 29459 (2009): the national-level health authority «es la encargada del control sanitario de los alimentos y bebidas» (is in charge of sanitary control of food and beverages). D.Leg. N.° 1222 (2015) amended article 92 again, effective with its regulations; we could not confirm it, and the page is now "partial". |
| 2026-10-13 | Palliative care, refusing treatment and dying with dignity | Said that appointing a health-care representative in advance requires a carta poder with a signature certified by an institutional notary officer (fedatario), a notary or a justice of the peace. | D.S. N.° 002-2019-SA (published January 31, 2019) amended literal a) of article 5 of the Regulation of Ley 29414: a «carta poder simple» (simple letter of authorization) is enough. The page quotes the current text, read in El Peruano. |
| 2026-10-13 | Owners' association and common expenses | The quote of article 137 of the Regulation of Ley 27157 (D.S. N.° 035-2006-VIVIENDA) left out, with "[...]", the sentence that includes repair and replacement of common property among common services; the quote of article 146 had a comma that is not in the text. | Both quotes now reproduce the literal text, including the sentence «Esto incluye la reparación y/o reposición de los bienes o de sus partes» (this includes repairing and/or replacing the property or its parts). The sources now name D.S. N.° 035-2006-VIVIENDA explicitly. |
| 2026-10-13 | Internal regulations of a building | The quote of the Twelfth Transitory Provision of the Regulation of Ley 27157 ended at «o el Modelo.», cutting the sentence short. | The quote now reproduces the full sentence: the model is the «Modelo de Reglamento Interno, que aprobará el Viceministerio de Vivienda y Construcción» (Model Internal Regulation to be approved by the Vice Ministry of Housing and Construction). The sources now name D.S. N.° 035-2006-VIVIENDA explicitly. |
| 2026-10-13 | Water leaks between floors | The quote of article 137, literal a), of the Regulation of Ley 27157 left out, with "[...]", the sentence that includes repair and replacement of common property among common services. | The quote now reproduces the full literal, including the sentence «Esto incluye la reparación y/o reposición de los bienes o de sus partes» (this includes repairing and/or replacing the property or its parts). |
| 2026-10-13 | Sunafil fine table | Said article 39 of Ley 28806 sets "an overall cap of 300 UIT per year for all fines on one employer" and that for MYPEs "those ceilings are cut in half". It attributed the article's wording to Decreto de Urgencia 044-2019 and did not mention Ley 32353. | Article 39 says the maximum fine for the total of infractions detected may not exceed 300 UIT in force in the year the violation was established: it is not an annual cap. What is reduced by 50% for micro and small enterprises is the sanction, not the ceilings. That wording comes from Ley 29981; Decreto de Urgencia 044-2019 only added two paragraphs. The page now explains that Ley 32353 (El Peruano, 27 May 2025) replaces the article, raises the microenterprise reduction to 70% and creates prior educational measures, but takes effect the day after its regulation is published, which we could not confirm; until then the 50% reduction applies. The page is now marked partial. |
| 2026-10-13 | Traffic tickets in Peru | Said the general regime gives "a 17% discount" if you pay within the first 5 business days and a smaller discount (33%) afterwards, that SAT Trujillo's discounts (83% and 67%) were "much higher", and that the difference confirmed there is no single nationwide discount. It quoted as the regulation's text a sentence taken from the MTC booklet. | Article 336 of the National Traffic Regulation (D.S. N° 016-2009-MTC, as worded by D.S. N° 003-2014-MTC) says you pay 17% of the amount within five business days of notice, or 33% from the sixth business day until before the sanction resolution: an 83% or 67% discount, the same as SAT Trujillo publishes. The benefit does not apply to a list of very serious infractions (among them M1, M2, M3 and M28). The page now quotes that article, read in the SPIJ text published by the MTC on gob.pe. |
| 2026-10-13 | What happens if a bank doesn't pay an SBS fine | Based the payment deadline, the inflation adjustment and coercive collection on Article 26 of the SBS Sanctions Regulation (Resolución SBS N.° 816-2005), and said the payment deadline runs on a final fine as a matter of "administrative practice". | Resolución SBS N.° 2755-2018 rendered that regulation without effect, except its Article 10. The page now cites Article 31 of the current Regulation on Infractions and Sanctions, read in the official SBS PDF: five days to pay from the day after notification, adjustment by the Wholesale Price Index plus legal interest, and coercive collection. The effect of an appeal is cited from paragraph 30.5: the sanction is enforced once the administrative route is exhausted. |
| 2026-10-13 | Noise and neighbor disturbances | Three sources linked municipal ordinances on El Peruano instead of the cited norm: D.S. N.° 085-2003-PCM pointed to Ordinance N.° 00192/MDSA of Santa Anita (2016), and Civil Code article 961 and article 80 of Law 27972 pointed to Ordinance N.° 012-2020/MDPN of Punta Negra. | It links the text of D.S. N.° 085-2003-PCM published by the Ministry of the Environment (SINIA), the Ministry of Justice's official edition of the Civil Code and the text of Law 27972 published by the Santiago de Surco municipality. The quotes are unchanged. The limits by zone are unchanged; the quote of the daytime and nighttime hours now reproduces the literal wording of article 3. |
| 2026-10-13 | Child labor in Peru | Gave 14 August 2020 as the publication date of D.S. N.° 018-2020-TR, and dated El Peruano's report on ways to report child labor to 2024. | El Peruano published the decree on 25 August 2020 (dated 24 August); the report is from 12 June 2023. |
| 2026-10-12 | Noise and neighbor disturbances | Quoted as the text of article 105 of the General Health Law a version taken from a municipal ordinance, which is not the current wording: «corresponde a la Autoridad de Salud competente dictar las medidas para minimizar y controlar los riesgos…». | Quotes article 105 as amended by Law 29712 (2011), from the Congress Library's annotated text: it is «la autoridad de salud de nivel nacional» (the national-level health authority) that issues «las medidas necesarias» (the necessary measures) to minimize and control those risks. |
| 2026-10-12 | Renouncing an inheritance | Said a renunciation could appear «in the decedent's own will» before death, and attributed to article 677 of the Civil Code a phrase («se tiene por no producida sucesión en favor del renunciante») that is not its text, citing a «Resolución N.º 729-2004-SUNARP-TR-L» with a link to a different resolution (029-2004). | It quotes articles 675, 677 and 678 of the Civil Code from the Ministry of Justice's official edition: a renunciation is made by public deed or a record before the judge, there is no renouncing a future inheritance, and a renunciation cannot be partial or conditional, is irrevocable and takes effect from the opening of the succession. We no longer cite the Tribunal Registral resolution. |
| 2026-10-12 | AFP vs. ONP | Said Law 32123's default enrollment already applied: that a "new worker" who didn't choose went to ONP and that an unaffiliated adult "may have been assigned" to an AFP. | The regulation (D.S. 189-2025-EF, articles 18 and 19, read on El Peruano) applies those rules by age, not employment: to the SNP for anyone turning 18 from 1 June 2027 who doesn't choose within 12 months; to the SPP for an unaffiliated adult who doesn't choose, from 1 June 2028. Nobody has been enrolled by default under those rules yet. We corrected the text, cite the regulation and explain what Law 32445 changed. |
| 2026-10-12 | Remote work for a foreign company | Said self-employed workers would have to contribute to a pension system from 2028, at rates rising until 2034, citing article 28 of the Ley 32123 regulation and press reports. | Decreto Supremo N.º 061-2026-EF (El Peruano, 16 April 2026) repealed that article 28 and amended 30.1: contributions by the self-employed remain voluntary. We corrected the text and cite the decree. |
| 2026-10-12 | Buying a used car | Quoted a paraphrase of the legal warranty as if it were the text of Ley 29571 («sin que cumpla con ciertas condiciones», «así no se haya señalado expresamente»). | It quotes article 20, literal a., as it appears in the official consolidated text (SPIJ): «sin cumplir con la referida garantía. No se puede pactar en contrario respecto de una garantía legal y la misma se entiende incluida en los contratos de consumo, así no se señale expresamente» (without meeting that warranty; a legal warranty cannot be contracted away and is included in consumer contracts even if not stated). |
| 2026-10-12 | Short-term rentals and Airbnb | Quoted as the text of article 1 of Ley 29571 a sentence that is not in the law: «la protección de sus intereses económicos, mediante el trato equitativo y justo en toda transacción». | It quotes literals c. and d. of numeral 1.1 as they appear in the official consolidated text (SPIJ): they are two separate rights, protection of economic interests and «un trato justo y equitativo en toda transacción comercial» (fair and equitable treatment in every commercial transaction). |
| 2026-10-11 | Medical decisions for a minor child | Quoted article 9 of the Código de los Niños y Adolescentes in its earlier wording. | Ley 32617 (El Peruano, 29 May 2026) amended that article and added «sin ningún tipo de discriminación» (without any kind of discrimination). We updated the quote and the source. |
| 2026-10-11 | Delayed or cancelled flight | Listed Ley 32325 as read in its sources while the text said "we could not read its text", gave it a title that is not the official one and blended it with ticket postponement. Said that on overbooking, compensation applies if you are bumped "without that step" (without a call for volunteers). | We read Ley 32325 in the official El Peruano edition (9 May 2025): free endorsement or transfer up to 24 hours before the flight, and sanctions by the civil aviation authority if the airline refuses; postponement remains under article 66.7 of Ley 29571. On overbooking, article 6 of Decisión 619 requires compensation, refund and assistance for anyone bumped against their will, whether or not volunteers were called. Rereading Decisión 619 in full, we added information preferably in writing (art. 4(h)), the ban on lesser conditions (art. 24), scope (art. 2), connections (art. 8(f)), refunds within five business days (art. 11) and priority care (art. 10). |
| 2026-10-11 | Flight compensation calculator and its claim letter | On overbooking it asked whether volunteers were called and, if yes, said no extra compensation was owed. The letter said the 25% applies "if I was not first asked to volunteer". | It now asks whether you volunteered. For passengers bumped against their will it shows the next flight, assistance by length of wait and the 25% minimum; the letter cites articles 6 and 8(e) without that condition. |
