⚠️ Key Rule
Peru has relaxed entry policy. Immigration usually gives 90-183 days.
Viza ≠ ulazak. Viza dopušta samo ukrcaj i podnošenje zahtjeva — granični policajac odlučuje koga pustiti i traži dokaz da ćete otići. Povratna karta FlightProof taj je dokaz: jedan od najjeftinijih dokaza daljnjeg putovanja u svijetu — najniža cijena za vašu rutu. Izdano u manje od minute. Prođite imigraciju i uživajte u vizi.

Why airlines refuse boarding without an onward ticket
Flying to a high-risk country? The airline — not immigration — checks you before boarding, and it will not board you even when you never show a "when is your return flight" ticket at the border. The reservation out is exactly what we confirm: any route out, on the date you choose — that's it. Immigration passed: how long you stay depends on the entry stamp you receive.
Officer: “When is your return flight?”
You: “In two weeks — here is the booking.”
Stamp. Entry granted. That was the only question, and you had the answer ready.
Win-win: you buy a ticket out just to come in, you never fly it, and there is nothing to cancel afterwards — no fare held, no refund to chase. The officer gets a straight answer; you keep your plans.

Gdje će se tražiti dokaz o daljnjem putovanju
Osoblje zračnog prijevoznika vidi međunarodnu kartu i obično provjerava dokaz o daljnjem putovanju prije izdavanja ukrcajne propusnice.
Na nekim izlazima osoblje ponovno provjerava putne dokumente — spremna karta izbjegava ponovne provjere i kašnjenja.
Službenici imigracije mogu pitati kako i kada ćete napustiti zemlju.
Neki šalteri za vizu po dolasku traže kartu za izlazak iz zemlje kao dio uvjeta za ulazak.

Why You Need an Onward Ticket for Peru
Peru has strict enforcement of onward travel requirements. Immigration at major airports checks for proof of departure. All airlines verify at check-in too.
If you arrive without proof of onward travel, you may face:
- Denied boarding by the airline at your departure airport
- Secondary inspection at immigration, causing delays of 1–4 hours
- Denied entry and placement on the next available return flight (at your expense)
- Visa cancellation or a re-entry ban in serious cases
- Shorter stay granted (e.g., 15 days instead of 30)
FlightProof provides instant onward tickets that satisfy both airline check-in systems and immigration requirements worldwide. Your booking comes with a PNR-style booking reference and itinerary PDF delivered to your email within minutes.
