RENIEC Sets Special In-Person Hours Jan. 2–3 for DNI Procedures Nationwide

The agency says the two-day window addresses a year-end surge in requests tied to travel and urgent needs.

Overview

  • Offices across Peru will open from 8:15 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. on both days, limited to DNI-related transactions and document pickup.
  • Services available include issuance of the electronic DNI, renewals, duplicates for loss or theft or damage, updates to personal data or photo, and collection of completed IDs.
  • RENIEC spokesperson Jorge Puch said the exceptional opening responds to higher demand around New Year when many citizens need IDs for urgent procedures.
  • RENIEC continues promoting the electronic DNI, which includes a cryptographic chip and added security features, with promotional fees of S/30 for adults and S/16 for minors payable via virtual platforms or authorized agents.
  • For weekend or holiday payments, users were reminded to first generate a payment ticket and use Yape or BCP agents before attending.
