Tax in Peru

VAT 18%

Reduced and zero rates 0%

How reliable is this figure

Graded high: this rate has been checked against a tax-authority or official source. It is still your responsibility to confirm it before you rely on it.

Whatever the grade, your own setting always wins — a rate you enter overrides the registry everywhere, including on documents already dated in the past.

Document types recognised in Peru

These are the documents DocsOrigin will offer a business registered in Peru, under the names used there. A type that has no meaning locally is not offered at all.

Tax identifier

On a document issued in Peru the identifier is labelled VAT number. It is printed in the header of every tax document, isolated left-to-right so it reads correctly in any interface language.

No structural check is applied for Peru: the format is accepted as entered, because a wrong rule that rejects a valid number is worse than no rule.

Numbering

Documents in Peru are expected to run in an unbroken sequence. DocsOrigin allocates the number at the moment of issue — never earlier — so a draft that is abandoned does not burn a number and leave a gap you have to explain.

Prefix, padding and yearly reset are configurable per document type, and the series is kept separately for each type.

How Peru writes dates and money

Set the country and these stop being settings you have to think about. The examples below are rendered by the same formatter the documents use.

Date: 21/09/2026
Amount: 12.345,67 S/
Currency: PEN
Minor units: 2

⁨PEN⁩ is written with ⁨2⁩ decimal places, and every amount is stored as a whole number of minor units. ⛔ Money never touches floating point.

A worked example in Peru

Three lines, priced identically everywhere, run through the real tax engine with the Peru registry entry applied. This is what the document looks like there.
