A1 certificates in Peru are issued by EsSalud or the Ministry of Labor, confirming that posted employees remain under their home country’s social security system.
Processing times may vary; officially, it should take 7–10 business days. The main challenge is that POAs executed outside Peru must be notarized and apostilled.
