    How do I get an official company extract in Peru?

    Start with SUNAT / SUNARP at https://e-consultaruc.sunat.gob.pe to identify the entity and available company extract. An ordinary extract, historical filing and certified copy are different documents. Check the recipient's requirements and official access conditions before ordering. A LemReveal PDF is not a government-certified extract.

    Step-by-step

    1. 1

      Confirm the entity first

      Search by name or registration number and confirm you have the right legal entity before paying for anything.

    2. 2

      Choose the evidence required

      Ask the recipient whether it needs an ordinary extract, historical filing, certified copy, translation or legalisation. A free summary is not automatically sufficient.

    3. 3

      Follow the official document route

      Use https://e-consultaruc.sunat.gob.pe to find the issuing authority or authorised service and its current fees. Check what the document actually certifies.

    4. 4

      Check the issue date

      Ask what issue date the recipient accepts; there is no universal three-month validity period. Retain the issue date, retrieval date and source.

    Peru: choosing and checking the right record

    Choose the correct source
    Use SUNAT's Consulta de RUC for taxpayer-registration facts. This is a tax source, not a complete company-registration or ownership file. Confirm the exact RUC before considering any separate corporate-document inquiry.
    Confirm the entity
    Match the 11-digit RUC and razón social. Preserve the estado del contribuyente separately from the condición del domicilio; they describe different things and must not be collapsed into a single safe-or-unsafe label.

    Frequently asked questions

    Do I need a paid extract to verify a Peru company?

    Compare available public information with official document options and the recipient's requirements. Free lookup does not guarantee complete or certified evidence.

    What does a Peru company extract contain?

    Contents vary by document. Check whether it covers current identity, officers, representation or historical filings. A registration certificate does not necessarily describe today's appointments.

    Is a LemReveal PDF an official extract?

    No. It is a third-party research record. Obtain an official or certified document through the relevant authority or authorised service when required.

    What is a RUC?

    RUC (Registro Único de Contribuyentes) is Peru's 11-digit taxpayer identification number. For companies, it starts with 20. It's assigned by SUNAT and used for all tax and commercial purposes.
