Nonetheless, if you do want to bring your pet to Peru, you must apply for an Import Permit; have your pet vaccinated for rabies between 30 days and 12 months prior to travel; have a USDA (or CFIA) accredited veterinarian complete a Veterinary Certificate for Peru; and have a ticks and tapeworm examination performed by a veterinarian shortly before travel. It's also a good idea to carry something that identifies you as the owner of the animal.
Pet Travel, the worldwide travel resource for pets, is a good website that details the necessary requirements for bringing your pet to Peru.
