The antigen test (for people over 12 years old) can be done at the airport, your hotel or on the way to your hotel. WHAT IF I’M ALREADY VACCINATED? Do I need a negative PCR test result to enter Peru? Yes, you do. Being vaccinated does not prove you cannot carry the virus. It only protects you from the disease. Will my antigen test result be positive? No, the test is performed on nasal swab specimens. It does not analize your blood sample. Thus, it cannot detect the antibodies generated by the vaccine. Am I exonerated from wearing the facial mask and shield? No, these safety protocols must be strictly followed during the trip for protection and security. We appreciate your collaboration and understanding.
