Visa queries from an Indian planning a Machu Picchu, Peru vacation

I am in US currently and an Indian citizen.

What's visa process and is it easy to get one?

Do we get multiple entry or single entry visa?

Do I need to have itinerary and tickets first before I get visa or can I do all that once I get visa?

Best Answer

As of March 2017, any Indian national with a valid visa from United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia or any Schengen State, can visit Perú without a visa [1][2].

I visited the country last month. Both me and my wife have a Canadian tourist and US work visa, immigration officer checked my US visa and my wife's Canadian visa.
