Expand Your Business to Peru
A resilient, export-driven economy and a well-established framework for foreign investment make Peru a practical entry point into the Andean region. Corpiya handles entity formation, payroll and EOR, and ongoing tax and compliance — so you can operate in Peru from day one.
Everything You Need to Operate in Peru
Expanding a business into Peru typically means incorporating a Sociedad Anónima Cerrada (S.A.C.) — the standard structure for foreign subsidiaries — registering with SUNARP, and securing a RUC tax ID from SUNAT before you can invoice, hire, or open a bank account. Peru’s payroll obligations add a layer most first-time entrants underestimate: gratificaciones paid every July and December, CTS (compensación por tiempo de servicios) severance deposits made twice yearly, and pension contributions to either the public ONP system or a private AFP.
Corpiya supports the full lifecycle end to end. Business registration in Peru, payroll and EOR, and ongoing accounting and compliance are handled by one team, so nothing falls into the gap between a subsidiary you formed yourself and a payroll provider who doesn’t know your entity structure.

Peru offers a stable, export-oriented economy with an established legal framework for foreign investment and a straightforward path to forming an S.A.C. subsidiary. Lima anchors most market entries, with mining, agribusiness, and a growing services sector driving demand. Companies operating in Peru should also watch a steadily evolving compliance landscape — from digital-services VAT rules for foreign providers to updated UBO (beneficial ownership) disclosure requirements — that Corpiya tracks on behalf of clients as part of ongoing compliance support.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I expand a business into Peru?
Most companies start by deciding whether to hire through an Employer of Record or form a local entity, then register with SUNARP and secure a RUC tax ID from SUNAT. Corpiya handles company formation, payroll and EOR, and accounting and compliance together, so the sequence stays coordinated rather than split across separate providers.
What’s involved in company formation in Peru?
Company formation in Peru typically means incorporating a Sociedad Anónima Cerrada (S.A.C.) — the standard structure for foreign subsidiaries — filing with SUNARP, securing a RUC tax ID from SUNAT, and opening a local bank account.
How does business registration in Peru work?
Business registration in Peru runs through SUNARP (the public registry) for the entity itself and SUNAT for tax registration and your RUC. Corpiya manages both registrations as part of company formation.
What do payroll services in Peru include?
Payroll services in Peru cover gratificaciones paid every July and December, CTS (compensación por tiempo de servicios) severance deposits made twice yearly, and pension contributions to either the public ONP system or a private AFP. Corpiya runs payroll directly once you have a local entity.
What is an employer of record (EOR) in Peru, and do I need one?
An employer of record (EOR) in Peru becomes the legal employer of your staff so you can hire compliantly without first incorporating an S.A.C. — useful for a first hire or a small team while you validate the market. We handle CTS deposits and gratificaciones from an employee’s first day.
What does HR outsourcing in Peru cover?
HR outsourcing in Peru typically covers contract and leave administration in line with SUNAFIL (Peru’s labor inspectorate) requirements and mandatory CTS and gratificación scheduling, alongside benefits administration.
What do accounting services in Peru typically include?
Accounting services in Peru cover statutory bookkeeping, electronic invoicing (comprobantes electrónicos), and monthly PDT filings tied to your RUC, in addition to annual financial statements. Foreign providers of digital services into Peru should also review the 18% digital services VAT rules that took effect for cross-border providers.
What’s required for tax compliance in Peru?
Tax compliance in Peru centers on SUNAT registration, electronic invoicing for most transactions, and monthly PDT filings tied to your RUC — along with keeping your UBO (beneficial ownership) affidavit current, a requirement SUNAT has been actively updating.
What do corporate secretarial services in Peru cover?
Corporate secretarial services in Peru cover SUNARP filings, board minute-keeping, and the annual corporate updates required to keep a Peruvian entity in good standing.
