  ⚖️ Legal & Security Notes

  ❗ Selling or advertising passports for profit (especially outside government channels) is illegal and often linked to identity fraud, human trafficking, or other crimes.

  ✔️ If someone is simply selling their own still-valid passport because they don’t need it anymore, that too is generally not lawful — passports must be returned to the issuing authority if surrendered.

  ✔️ If you need a Peruvian passport — whether biometric or not — you must apply through official Peruvian government channels (e.g., RENIEC and Peruvian consulates abroad).
